Provided by Mikekey *

Categories     Hot Drinks

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 c cranberry juice cocktail
2 oz southern comfort liqueur
1 1/2 oz cinnamon schnapps

Steps:

  • 1. Heat all ingredients in a small saucepan.
  • 2. Serve in mugs, garnished with a cinnamon stick, if desired.

Tips

  • Use fresh cinnamon sticks: Fresh cinnamon sticks provide a more intense flavor than ground cinnamon.
  • Don't boil the cinnamon sticks: Boiling the cinnamon sticks will make them bitter. Instead, simmer them gently in water for 15-20 minutes.
  • Add other spices to taste: You can add other spices to the syrup, such as cloves, nutmeg, or ginger, to create a more complex flavor.
  • Use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature of the syrup: This will ensure that the syrup reaches the correct temperature for setting.
  • Let the snaps cool completely before cutting them: This will help them to hold their shape.
