If you've never tried a Sazerac, give this version a go. Honey in place of sugar better compliments the rye.

Editor's Note

A split-base of rye and brandy adds depth to this classic, while a honeycomb garnish provides a subtle, floral sweetness that ties the drink together.

This is a fantastic twist on a classic! The honeycomb garnish is such a beautiful touch. Do you have a favorite type of honey you like to use for this?
