GIN OLD FASHIONED
Honey oh so sweet and gin. Switch it up. An old fashioned doesn’t have to be made with whiskey. Try gin instead, and you’ll find the same comforting warmth, but with a little more brightness as well.
Ingredients
- 59 ml (2 ounces) dry gin
- 15 ml (1 tablespoon) honey
- 3 dashes grapefruit bitters
Preparation
1. Pour the honey into the bottom of an old fashioned glass.
2. Add the bitters and gin.
3. Stir gently to combine.
4. Add ice — one large cube if you have it.

Roberts & June call Washington D.C. home and spend their days doing policy work, making things like education and upward mobility accessible. They spend their nights mixing drinks, trying to make cocktails more accessible. In addition to a well-stocked bar, they own many bikes, have less-than-pleasant thoughts about winter (after surviving more than a dozen of them in Boston), and dream about spending a summer in France.
