Ingredients:
1.5 oz Uncle Nearest 1884 Tennessee Whiskey (smooth with caramel & spice notes)
1 oz Cinnamon-Infused Simple Syrup (recipe below)
1 oz Licor 43 (for that signature vanilla-citrus warmth)
2 oz Win Win Signature Blend espresso (bold and rich, perfect for the kick)
Ice (for shaking)
Cinnamon stick (for garnish, optional)
Ground cinnamon (for a light dusting on top, optional)
Cinnamon-Infused Simple Syrup Recipe:
In a small saucepan, combine:
½ cup water
½ cup sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
Simmer over low heat for 5-7 minutes until the cinnamon fully infuses.
Let it cool, then strain out the cinnamon sticks. Store in the fridge for up to a week.
Instructions:
Brew your espresso using Win Win Signature Blend and let it cool slightly.
In a shaker, add:
Whiskey
Licor 43
Cinnamon-infused simple syrup
Ice
Shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds until well chilled.
Strain into a chilled coupe or rocks glass.
Gently pour espresso over the back of a spoon to create a layered effect (or mix if preferred).
