A Note from Natalie: The Bee’s Knees is a classic cocktail that has always evoked a sense of summer, but it’s truly great for any occasion. There’s no better way to celebrate gin than by adding the herbaceous notes of basil and the summer flavors of peach to elevate this classic for warm-weather sipping.
