In gaelic, uisce betha, or 'water of life' was used to describe such drinks in the Middle Ages. This malted grain whiskey must be produced on the island of Ireland.
1 oz
A belgian liqueur made with cognac, mandarine peels, herbs and spices; very similar in taste to grand marnier.
2 tsp
A syrup produced by bees (apis). Pure honey is 82% sugar and very viscous, if you add 64g water to every 100g honey you can make a thinner honey syrup that will substitute (with respect to sweetness) for simple syrup in any recipe, equivalent to 1.1:1 honey to water by volume. We try to always use 1:1 syrups by mass. However, most sources measure honey syrups by volume, this tends to make comparing recipes across sources that use honey syrups complicated, we tried to state what the original source uses in the recipe text. If no extra information is given, assume the syrup to be 1:1 by volume (eq ~1.4:1 by mass). Proteins in natural honey provide structure to bubbles in shaken drinks.

Step 1: Top and tail the lemon and orange, then cut several small triangle shaped pieces from each. Place lemon triangles in an old-fashioned glass until the glass is 1/4 full, then fill the glass to 1/2 full with orange wedges. Muddle the fruit, and set aside. Step 2: Mix whiskey and honey, then pour over muddled fruit, add Mandarin liqueur and crushed ice to fill. Churn the mix up until well mixed. Garnish with orange and lemon wheels, with 2 short straws. #muddle #build #ontherocks #swizzle
