  1. Simple syrup: Heat sugar and water together gently, stirring until sugar is completely dissolved. Leave to cool. Leftover syrup can be kept in fridge for up to 2 weeks.
  2. For the cocktail: Puree honeydew and strain liquid through a fine strainer. Discard any solids. Muddle coriander in the bottom of a cocktail shaker. Fill cocktail shaker with ice and add honeydew juice plus remaining ingredients and shake well. Strain into a glass filled with ice.
