The Bee’s Knees 0.0 is a citrus-forward non-alcoholic cocktail with honey, fresh lemon and the layered botanicals of Empress 1908 0.0 Indigo. Inspired by the Prohibition-era original, this version keeps the same structure, with some earthy spice tones from Empress 1908 0.0 Indigo.
Empress 1908 0.0 Indigo adds depth and herbal undertones, while honey syrup softens the acidity of the lemon, creating a smooth and balanced drink. Its signature indigo hue adds a visual element that shifts slightly when mixed, making the cocktail as striking in the glass as it is refreshing to drink. Finished with a lemon twist, the Bee’s Knees 0.0 is a clean, elegant cocktail that feels both classic and modern.
