The Story Behind Our Honey Lemon Ginger Vodka
At The Basin Backyard, everything starts with local honey. Our Honey Lemon Ginger Vodka was created to showcase honey’s natural sweetness in a refreshing, contemporary way.
We combine pure honey harvested from Victorian hives with real lemon zest and fresh ginger root. The result is a bright, fragrant spirit that balances sweetness, spice and tang without being overpowering. It’s a spirit that reflects what we do best — turning honey into something truly special.

How to Serve Honey Lemon Ginger Vodka
Our customers love experimenting with this spirit — and we’ve gathered some of the most popular serving ideas below.
1. Straight or on the rocks
Enjoy it neat to experience its full flavour. The honey gives a natural smoothness that doesn’t need mixers.
2. With soda and a twist of lime
For something lighter, pour 30ml over ice, top with soda water and finish with a squeeze of lime.
3. As a cocktail base
Use it in place of regular vodka for an extra hint of depth and sweetness. It pairs well with elderflower syrup, tonic or lemonade.
4. In a winter warmer
Mix a shot into hot water with a slice of lemon for a honey-infused nightcap.

Why Local Ingredients Matter
Every bottle of Honey Lemon Ginger Vodka supports local beekeepers and sustainable sourcing. The honey used in our spirits is harvested right here in Victoria, from bees that pollinate native flora.
By using local ingredients, we reduce transport emissions, support regional producers and guarantee traceability from hive to bottle. It’s part of what makes our products truly unique and why our customers return for more.

From Hive to Glass: The Basin Backyard Difference
Our approach is simple: small batches, hands-on craftsmanship and premium ingredients. Every bottle of Honey Lemon Ginger Vodka is made in limited runs to preserve quality.
Visitors to our Knoxfield shop can often sample our honey range and spirits in person, learning more about how they’re made. It’s a local experience that connects people directly with beekeeping and natural flavours.
