Honey Simple Syrup
Honey simple syrup is just as easy to make as simple syrup but adds a lot more complexity to a drink. You can instantly change the whole flavor of a cocktail by subbing honey syrup for simple syrup. Not to mention you take the health factor up a notch (just ignore the fact that you’re most likely adding it to alcohol).

I make really small batches of this stuff and store it in a tiny bottle in the fridge. Feel free to double the recipe if you’re going to use a lot of it or use it frequently.
