Trying to get ahead of the game, I’ve got six people staying with me for a week this holiday season and I would love to make a kind of batch cocktail. I’ve made egg nog in the past and loved it, but I’ve got two avid egg nog haters and one gluten free dietary restriction. Is there anything I can make that is generally well liked but still fun? I like decorating my drinks and making them all fancy. I mostly drink whiskey based cocktails, but I also enjoy every kind of cocktail that doesn’t have gin.
This sounds awesome! Especially love the maple syrup and burnt cinnamon, I’d never have thought to try burning the cinnamon. Does it make it stronger?
No, the cinammon taste will be softer (cooked out) but it will be have some smoke and burnt notes that will give the guest the v feeling that they’re drinking it next to a roaring fire.
