Most people reach for a store-bought syrup and call it a day, but building it from scratch like this makes a noticeable difference in depth of flavor.
The bourbon cream and maple syrup combo is something we’ve been playing with ourselves at Madison Bar & Grill in Hoboken. Our Flannel Weather cocktail uses Horse Soldier Bourbon with apple cider, maple syrup, and orange bitters — that same warm, rich sweetness that just fits the colder months perfectly.
Going to try the bourbon barrel-aged maple syrup tip next time. That small swap sounds like it adds a lot without overcomplicating the build.
