Dawa Cocktail

Ingredients

2 oz your favorite vodka
1 tsp sugar or 1 tbsp brown sugar
1 lime, quartered then cut into chunks, plus lime wheel to garnish

Crushed ice
1 tsp honey + stir stick for garnish (A wooden honey stick or other type of stick twisted in honey also works)

Method

Put lime and sugar into a whisky tumbler or Old Fashioned glass.
Crush limes slightly - just enough to release the lime juice but not so much as to mash the pith (that will release a bitter flavor).
Add ice and pour in the vodka.
Dip the stirring stick in honey, then lightly stir it into the drink. Remember: Honey is a garnish in this cocktail. You don’t want the drink to become sickly sweet.
Garnish with the lime wheel, serve and enjoy!
