In all the holiday hustle and bustle, I am sharing a cocktail recipe that’s perfect for the season. Goes down pretty easy and you’ll find yourself making a second or third serving.

 

This is not our original recipe, but one that was served at a favorite, now defunct restaurant in San Francisco.

Ingredients:

Juice from 1 and ½ lemon (we used Meyers Lemon)

3 oz. Rye Whiskey (any you have on hand will do)

1 oz. Vermouth

4.5 oz. Pineapple Juice (we used canned)

Whole Nutmeg

1.5 oz. Cinnamon Simple Syrup

Make the simple syrup one to one, 1 cup of water to 1 cup of sugar

  • Boil water with a couple of cinnamon sticks
  • Remove cinnamon sticks once the water has boiled
  • Turn down the heat to very low and add the sugar
  • Stir until sugar dissolves, never take your eyes off this process.
  • Turn off heat, let cool and decant

Add ice cubes (about 3) to a cocktail shaker, then add all other ingredients, shake until very well mixed. Pour into chilled coupe glasses, grate the nutmeg over each cocktail. Serve and enjoy!
