Invented by Hugo Ensslin and first written in his 1916 book Recipes for Mixed Drinks, this is an wonderful little drink. you would think with a name like the honeymoon it would have honey in it but it doesn’t. Not much to say about it other than its a pre-prohibition cocktail that uses apple brandy and benedictine together in a very nice way.
