• 2 oz. Bourbon.
  • 1/2 oz. Cynar.
  • 3 dashes Angostura Bitters.
  • 1/2 oz. Clove and Cardamom Simple Syrup.
  • Garnished with Star Anise

I made the clove and cardamom simple syrup by grinding up 6 cloves and equal pay cardamom seeds powder, adding 1/2 oz. sugar and 1/2 (ish) oz boiling water, then letting it cool. This maybe excessive for some on the spices.

This was a really good drink, the spices went well with the fire we had going. My wife thought it was a bit strong, but I thought it was perfect.

    Sounds great. I have some cardamom bitters I occasionally use, but with a clove syrup and cynar that could be a great mix.
