Instructions
Shake all ingredients except Allspice and double strain in cocktail glass rinsed with Allspice Dram. I use 2 sprays with an atomic bottle.
Notes
Sunflower Orgeat: 4 cups roasted, unsalted sunflower seeds, 1 cup sugar. Combin the sugar and 2.5 cups sugar in a saucepan over med heat. Allow mixture to boil for 3 minutes then add sunflower seeds. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 3-5 more minutes, then gradually increase temp to med-high. When the mix is just about to boil, remove from heat and cover pan. Let rest for at least 6 hours.
Strain mix with a fine mesh and cheese cloth.
