Step 1

To make the honey simple syrup: You’ll need to warm the honey so it will mix it into the water. In a tiny saucepan on the stove, combine honey and water. Warm over medium heat, whisking occasionally, just until the honey has melted into the water. Remove from heat.

Step 2

To make a cocktail (you can make multiple drinks at once): Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the gin, clementine juice and simple syrup in the proportions listed above. Securely fasten the cap on the shaker and shake until well chilled, about 20 seconds. Strain the liquid into Champagne glasses and top with Champagne. Garnish with a twist or wedge of clementine and serve immediately.
