An old fashioned with honey-sage syrup. The subtle aftertaste of the sage pairs so well with the bourbon.

To make the syrup, combine 1 cup water, 1/2 cup honey, and 10-12 fresh sage leaves in a saucepan. Bring to a slow boil, reduce heat, and simmer for about 2 minutes. Let leaves steep until cool, then strain out leaves. Combine bourbon, honey-sage syrup, and bitters in a mixing glass with ice. Strain into a rocks glass with fresh ice.
Editor's Note
Honey-sage syrup adds a savory, herbal depth to this bourbon classic. A simple, effective riff that highlights the spirit's natural sweetness.
