CINNAMON OLD FASHIONED
For the holidays, I like to spice up my usual Old Fashioned. Rather than just whiskey, bitters, and sugar, I use a cinnamon-infused simple syrup to make this classic cocktail just a bit different.

Steps:
- In a mixing glass, add the cinnamon bark syrup, rum, bourbon and bitters. Fill with ice cubes and mix by holding the spoon like a pen and stirring clockwise. To serve, place a large ice cube into a glass and strain. Run the orange twist around the rim, add to the cocktail and serve.
- In a saucepan, combine equal parts sugar and water. Break up the cinnamon bark (sticks), add to the simple syrup mixture, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cool, and strain.
SPICY CINNAMON SYRUP
A pinch of cayenne pepper adds just the right amount of heat in this fragrant cocktail syrup made with cinnamon, cardamom, and vanilla beans. Bottle it for holiday or hostess gifts or use it to make our Spiced Hot Buttered Rum.

Steps:
- Combine sugar, cardamom, and cinnamon in a medium saucepan. Split vanilla beans lengthwise and scrape out seeds; add seeds and beans to sugar mixture with 4 cups water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high, stirring until sugar is dissolved (if it begins to boil, reduce heat -- boiling will make the syrup cloudy). Remove from heat; add cayenne. Let steep 1 hour.
- Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large liquid-measuring cup; discard cardamom pods but reserve cinnamon sticks and vanilla beans. Refrigerate until completely cool, 1 hour. Pour into gift bottles; divide reserved vanilla beans and cinnamon sticks among bottles. Syrup can be stored in bottles, refrigerated, up to 1 month.

CINNAMON RUM SYRUP
This is a great syrup to pour over fruit pancakes or ice cream. Gives it a little kick. Quick and easy and great to give as a gift. From the book "Small Batch Preserving".
