So, we've really enjoyed the homemade cinnamon candy around here.
Mr. Cook in a Bar and I knew we could increase our enjoyment by combining the sweet and spicy candy with alcohol. Now, big surprise here...we went with bourbon. Yeah, we're a little preoccupied.
The drink came together pretty easily for us and we both slurped it up quickly, but we struggled with a name. Luckily, our friend Kate was willing to sample the drink and after only one round she came up with a name that we found both amusing and clever...
