Banana Old Fashioned

Aaron

Perfectly balanced. The half ounce of creme de banane tempers and adds richness and sweetness to the rye. The walnut bitters is a better fit than angostura, as it adds a rich nuttiness. Fresh grated cinnamon on top adds to the aroma more than the flavor.

Ingredients:

• ½ oz Creme de Banane (Tempus Fugit)
