Ingredients

  • 2 ounces Spiced Citrus Vodka
  • 1 ounce rich demerara syrup
  • 1 ounce lemon juice
  • Cinnamon and fine sugar, to rim the glass

Instructions

  • Rim the edge of a glass with lemon juice, and coat in a combination of fine sugar and cinnamon.
  • Combine the Spiced Citrus Vodka, demerara syrup, and lemon juice in a cocktail shaker with ice, and shake until frosty. Strain the finished cocktail into the prepared glass and serve.

Notes

How to Make Rich Demerara Syrup: Combine two parts raw demerara (or turbinado) sugar with one part water in a sauce pan over medium-high heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Let simmer until it becomes the consistency of very runny honey. Remove from heat, allow to cool, and transfer to a bottle or jar. Store in the fridge and use within four months.
