2 Great Cocktail Ideas Using Honey

The bees are quiet now, but earlier this year - they were busy making honey for the chefs at Marquette Hotel in downtown Minneapolis.

They started keeping bees on the roof of the hotel about 3 years ago. And, they use the fresh honey in some of their recipes and cocktails.

Here are two cocktail ideas:
