Cinnamon Syrup is an essential tiki ingredient. It has the power to transform a simple tropical cocktail into a tiki cocktail with ease.

Note —
To make cinnamon syrup: Combine 350 grams refined sugar with 175 grams filtered water in a blender until dissolved. Add syrup and one ounce of cinnamon sticks (broken) to a ziplock bag, then remove air via water displacement method. Submerge in a 140° water bath for two hours, then transfer to an ice bath until cool. Fine-strain, bottle and refrigerate.
(You can also make cinnamon syrup on the stovetop by boiling cinnamon sticks in simple syrup—just make sure you use a 2-1 ratio of sugar to water.)
