  • Fabulous! Grapefruit & cinnamon are a great combo. Agree with other commenters on reducing cinnamon syrup to 1/4 oz, and finishing with a mezcal spritz.
  • Nice combo, but cinnamon dominates. I lowered cinnamon to 1/4 oz which was better. I also added 1/2 oz mezcal cuz I like it a bit smoky ;)
  • Agree with others about reducing the cinnamon syrup.
  • A bit too spiced.
  • Intense cinnamon. I might cut back a tad, add more grapefruit somehow. This goes into summer rotation...
  • Tequila- bitter, sour, cinnamon
  • Made with Becherovka in place of cinnamon syrup. Grapefruit predominates. Terrific zingy finish. ETA: great with cinnamon syrup too! — ★★★★★
