With Thanksgiving fast approaching it is indeed the season for hemed cocktails. While pumpkin spice is a no brainer, we came across a delicious recipe that uses honey courtesy of Buzz+ Bloom Honey. Their take on the Tequila Sunrise is sure to make your holiday dinner that much more memorable.

Buzz+ Bloom Honey is a globally sourced craft-style honey that captures the natural and diverse goodness of the honeybee. Their Trim the Tree till (Tequila) Sunrise incorporates a delicious pomegranate honey syrup.

For the Pomegranate & Honey Syrup:

• 2 cups pomegranate juice
• ¼ cup of Buzz + Bloom American Honey

For the Tequila Sunrise:

• 6 ounces orange juice
• 3 ounces tequila
• ½ ounce Pomegranate & Honey Syrup
• Pomegranate arils, for garnish (optional)

Preparation: Make the Pomegranate & Honey Syrup: In medium saucepot, heat pomegranate juice to boiling over medium-high heat. Cook 25 to 30 minutes or until juice is reduced by half. Reduce heat to low; stir in honey. Remove from heat and let stand 10 minutes. Transfer syrup to jar or bottle and refrigerate until completely cool. Makes about 6 ounces (enough for 12 cocktails).

Make the Tequila Sunrises: Fill two rocks glasses with ice. Divide orange juice and tequila between glasses; stir. Divide Pomegranate & Honey Syrup between glasses. Serve garnished with pomegranate arils, if desired.
