If your plan is to spend the last, precious days of 2010 cozied up with a burly man on a bear skin rug, in the mountains, with snow a-falling every so delicately outside your window in Aspen… this is the drink for you. Even if you don’t plan on doing any of those things, this drink is for you. I mean… Cinnamon & Wild Turkey? This is universally top-notch way to drown out the end of the year. Bottoms up!
The Rooster
1 1/2 oz Wild Turkey 101
1/2 oz cinnamon schnapps laced with gold flakes
4 oz Sarsaparilla or any root beer
