I looked in my trusty cocktail recipe book and found these:
"Dawn Special"
5 cl vodka 1 lime 1 tablespoon honey 1 rock sugar stick (you know, those wooden sticks with rock sugar)
Cut the lime in smaller pieces, and muddle them with honey in the shaker. Add crushed ice and vodka. Shake a little and pour into a low-ball glass. Add a rock sugar stick and stir lightly before serving.
The phrase "the birds and the bees" is "the flowers and the bees" in Danish, so my mind went towards flower-inspired drinks as well:
"Rumbo Flower"
4 cl white rum (or whatever rum you have at hand) 3 cl elderflower syrup 1 dash freshly squeezed lemon juice A lemon peel spiral Mineral water (the carbonated kind)
Pour rum, elderflower syrup and lemon juice into a tall glass with crushed ice. Add a lemon peel spiral, stir and top off with mineral water. The recipe points out (very helpfully) that this drink also can be made by the pitcher...
