For the Witch Doctor:

1. (1) In a cocktail shaker, add the turmeric and scotch. Muddle the turmeric until completely pulverized, then add remaining ingredients and ice.
2. (2) Shake hard for 15 seconds and pour into a chilled rocks glass over one large ice cube. Optional: garnish with charred lemon slice.

For the Burnt Honey Syrup:

1. (1) Add 1 tbsp of the water and all of the honey to a heavy saucepan or skillet. Pre-weigh the 125 grams of water and set aside.
2. (2) Heat the honey over medium high heat. When the honey is bubbling and changes from its original color to a darker amber shade and smells like lightly burned caramel, remove from heat and add the 125 grams water immediately. The mixture will boil violently, so pour the water with care. Stir until all of the honey is fully dissolved.
3. (3) Strain through a fine mesh sieve and store in the fridge.
