Boil some water and let the bottle float in there and then try to get it out and pour without burning yourself. Behind the bar? No way! There must be a better way. And so it was I asked for the Mai Kai's way from Kern. He confirmed what I thought. They make a syrup just like the sugar syrup. Boiled the honey with water. So, my question is, have any of you made this, and what portions, etc.? I am going to try it soon, but wanted tips if there were any, to avoid wasting my time or efforts. I will start with the sugar portions I would guess and see how it goes. I am making a new batch of sugar syrup today, and that's what got me thinking.
