honey do cider - at the top of taurus’ list

This delectable bevvie is ruled by none other than the queen of succulent somethings, taurus. i’ve never actually tasted the bull’s fruit, but i gather it’s sweet as honey.
HONEY DO CIDER
2 oz Armagnac
2 oz Unpasteurized Apple Cider
1 1/2 Honey Syrup*
1/2 oz lemon juice
Dark SugarAdd ingredients to ice filled shaker and shake for a good ten seconds. this drink does mix easily and separates quickly. Prepare glass by rimming with dark sugar or similar (I used Coconut Palm Sugar with Turmeric Root). Pour into cocktail glass.
*To make honey syrup, add equal parts water and honey to saucepot. Heat until the honey melts. Watch it carefully, this boils over really fast! (recipe by gwen)
