Method

How to make Honeymoon Cocktail

Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.

  1. 01

    Chill the coupe thoroughly, confirm that no garnish is required, and ready the shaker.

  2. 02

    Measure apple brandy, benedictine, lemon juice, triple sec accurately and add them to a clean cocktail shaker.

  3. 03

    Fill the shaker about three-quarters full with solid ice cubes and seal it firmly.

  4. 04

    Pre-chill a coupe, add the apple brandy, Bénédictine, fresh lemon juice, and one teaspoon of triple sec to a shaker filled with solid ice, shake firmly for 10–15 seconds until very cold and integrated, fine-strain into the chilled coupe, let coarse bubbles settle to a thin natural line, and serve without garnish.

  5. 05

    Fine-strain into the chilled coupe so no small ice fragments reach the drink.

  6. 06

    Serve immediately without a garnish while the drink is at its best.
