Third, because honey has a unique ability to bring out the best in other flavors.

How to Make the Honey Highball Cocktail

Are you looking for a cocktail that’s sweet, but doesn’t make you feel like a sugar junkie?

If so, then the Honey Highball Cocktail is for you. It’s light, refreshing and easy to make—and it won’t leave you feeling like a sugar-crazed maniac!

  • To make the Honey Highball, add the honey, tequila and lemon juice to a highball glass.
  • Stir to dissolve honey into liquid.
  • Add the orange juice and integrate it with the other ingredients.
  • Add ice and top with club soda.
  • Garnish with an orange wedge.

What Kind of Honey Use in this Drink?

We recommend using raw, unfiltered honey for its full flavor, but the beauty of the Honey Highball Cocktail is that you can use any type of honey you want. You could even use agave syrup or molasses—just make sure to adjust the amount you use to compensate for the difference in sweetness between honey and whatever sweetener you choose.

We don’t recommend using a flavored honey because it will add too much extra flavor to the cocktail, but if you want to use a different kind of honey, go for it!

Tips from Our Experts to Make the Best Honey Highball Cocktail

The honey highball cocktail is a great drink to have in the summertime. It’s sweet and refreshing, and it’s a nice break from the heavier cocktails of winter too. However, not all honey highballs are made equal—there’s a fine line between deliciousness and disaster. Here are some tips from our experts on how to make the best honey highball cocktail:

  1. Use fresh lemon juice—it really makes a difference!
  2. Don’t use too much ice. The ice will dilute your drink.
  3. Try adding a splash of soda water if you don’t like your drink too sweet or if you want to make it more carbonated.
  4. Use a good quality tequila like our Altos Reposado.
  5. A good rule of thumb for choosing honey is to look for something that’s not processed or treated with heat, as this can kill off some of its beneficial properties.
