  • Used cachaca in place of the 1/2oz rum; agree with reduced syrup to 1/4oz (used homemade cinnamon syrup), increase Banane du Bresil by 1/4oz for more banana power, 2 dash Ango + 2 dash Amargo Chuncho Peruvian bitters. — ★★★★★
  • I find this works even better than the original by exchanging the rums in the original recipe for 2oz of Plantation Xaymaca and using 1/4oz of 2:1 cinnamon syrup.
  • Made with BG Reynolds Cinnamon Syrup and Marie Giffard Banane du Bresil More like a 4.5 for me. Only not a 5 because I get almost no banana in this; the cinnamon seems to swallow it up.
  • 3/4 lemon, 1/4 syrup
