Forest Feast: The Skylonda Cocktail

January 30, 2012Erin Gleeson
title_skylonda This is my new favorite winter cocktail to drink in our neck of the woods, so I named it after our neighborhood, Skylonda. I just soak some cinnamon sticks in a jar of bourbon for a few days which gives it a nice spice. Then to the bourbon, I add a few drops of bitters and a splash of dry vermouth in one of Umamimart Shop's lovely Yarai cocktail mixing glasses.
