Notes

Pro Tips

  • To make burnt cinnamon demerara syrup, toast cinnamon sticks until fragrant, then steep them in a 2:1 demerara sugar-to-water syrup for added depth.
  • Use high-quality bitters and tinctures to enhance the complexity of the cocktail.
  • Chill your glass in advance to maintain the drink's temperature and highlight its flavors.
