Equipment

sauce pan, strainer, glass, bar spoon, jigger

Ingredients
  

For The Winter Spice Syrup:

  • 2 to 3 sticks Whole Cinnamon
  • 1 tsp Whole Cloves
  • 1/2 tsp Allspice Berries
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1 cup Water

For The Iced Coffee:

  • 1 to 2 tsp Javy Coffee Concentrate
  • 6 oz Water - room temp or cold
  • Ice
  • 1 oz Winter Spice Syrup - or more if desired
  • Cream or Favorite Milk - for topping off
  • 1 oz Spiced Rum - Optional

Instructions
 

  • Make the syrup by combining water and sugar in a small sauce pan. Toss in 2 or 3 cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, and allspice berries. Bring it to a simmer and then cover, putting the lid on. Simmer with the lid on and the flame on low for 5 more minutes. Strain and store in a sealed bottle or container once cooled. Use for up to 2 weeks, if desired.
  • Measure out 6 oz of water with your jigger, if using. Combine the water and coffee concentrate by stirring and then pouring into your favorite mug, mason jar, or tall glass over fresh ice.
  • Splash in the desired amount of winter spice syrup, sweetening to desired taste. Splash in the spiced rum (if using). Stir with a bar spoon and add a light splash of creamer or your favorite milk.
  • Dip in a cinnamon stick and stir to combine. Use the cinnamon stick to stir and combine the layers of coffee and syrup as you sip. Enjoy!
