The Bees Knees

The Bees Knees

"The original Bees Knees cocktail has 2 oz of gin. This version, you can either do a full 2 oz of Free Spirits Gin, OR you can "dial it down" AKA: 1 oz of gin and 1 oz of Free Spirits Gin; making your cocktail half as strong, but still enjoying the same volume of cocktail. I actually prefer a Bees Knees with half and half, there is something about the Free Spirits gin that reaaaaaaaaaaaally brings out the citrus in the drink. It's SO. DELICIOUS."

 Let me make it fool proof: The original Bees Knees cocktail has 2oz (60ml) of gin. This version, you can either do a full 2oz (60ml) of Free Spirits Gin, OR you can "dial it down" AKA: 1oz of gin and 1oz of Free Spirits Gin; making your cocktail half as strong, but still enjoying the same volume of cocktail. I actually prefer a Bees Knees with half and half, there is something about the FS gin that reaaaaaaaaaaaally brings out the citrus in the drink. It's SO. DELICIOUS.
