Ingredients

2 oz bourbon - straight from the outlaw still, bold and fiery like a back-road chase
0.75 oz lemon juice - squeezed fresh from a roadside lemon stand, tart enough to wake the dead
0.5 oz honey - wildflower gold from the holler hives, sweet as a Sunday sermon
4-5 mint leaves - porch-grown and sassy, ready to muddle into minty mischief
1 lemon wheel - crisp and sunny for the final garnish flourish

Directions

Chill that rocks glass in the ice chest while you holler at the moon for good luck.
Drop the mint leaves into the shaker and give 'em a gentle muddle till the porch smells like a mint patch after rain.
Measure in the honey with a jigger and stir it lazy till it loosens up like a greased possum.
Pour the lemon juice right on top and give the mix one quick swirl to marry the tart and sweet.
Add the bourbon like you're pouring for the whole back-bar crew, two full ounces of that devil water.
Toss in some ice shards and shake hard for ten seconds till the shaker sweats like a July afternoon.
Strain the whole shebang into your chilled rocks glass over fresh ice for that perfect pour body.
Garnish with the mint sprig tucked in and the lemon wheel perched on the rim like a Southern crown.
Give it one last stir with a bar spoon and admire the condensation rolling down like outlaw tears.
