Instructions
  1. Preheat a grill to medium-high or warm a skillet over medium-high heat. Cut whole lemons in half and place cut sides down on the hot grill or skillet. Add lemon wheels to grill or skillet. Cook until lemon flesh is browned, about 4 to 6 minutes. (There’s no need to cook both sides of the wheels.) Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Set aside lemon wheels for garnish. Juice lemon halves and measure out 2 ounces grilled lemon juice. (Use any extra in salad dressing!)
  2. Combine measured lemon juice, tequila, and honey syrup in a cocktail shaker and fill with ice. Shake until well chilled, about 15 seconds. Strain into 2 chilled coupe glasses or ice-filled rocks glasses. Garnish with grilled lemon wheels (charred side up), rosemary sprig, and a pinch of flaky salt if desired.
