2 oz Light Rum
1 oz Honey Syrup*
3/4 oz Lime Juice
1 to 2 oz chilled Champagne, to taste.

Casseroles, Boxcutters, Jigger, Shaker Classic/Boston, Citrus Juicer, Strainer, Coupe Glass.

Shake Rum, Honey Syrup and fresh Lime Juice with ice; double strain into a coupe glass. Top with Champagne.

*Honey Syrup:
Combine equal parts honey and hot water, then stir or shake until honey is dissolved.

Notes: The richness of this cocktail is based almost entirely on what kind of rum you use; a white rum will mean a brighter cocktail, while a 15 year aged rum will make this libation taste like dessert. To make Cheers, and happy Labor Day!
