@craftandcocktails: Save this one because we’ll be using it in lots of cocktails coming up! I saw one leaf on the ground so that means it’s time for a batch of this Fall Spiced Syrup! This is the foundation for so many of my syrups this time of year (Pumpkin Spice, Apple Cider, Gingerbread) - a mother syrup if you will. ________ FALL SPICED SYRUP ________ •3 cinnamon sticks OR 3 tsp ground •1/4 of a fresh nutmeg grated OR 1 tsp ground •1 tsp cloves OR 3/4 tsp ground •1 tsp Allspice OR 3/4 tsp ground •3 cardamom pods or 1/4 tsp ground •1 cup brown sugar •1 cup water Gently grind up spices (mortar & pestal or chopping with a knife ) or use ground spices. Add spices to a pan on medium and toast for 30 seconds. Add brown sugar & water. Let simmer for 10 mints. Cool & fine strain. Store in the fridge for up to 1 month. PRO TIP: Add 1/2 ounce of vodka to the syrup to prolong the self life. #pumpkinspice #psl #applecider #fallcocktails #imbibegram
