Equipment

  • Cocktail Shaker
  • Measuring Cups
  • Glasses

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup bourbon
  • 2 cups ginger beer
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Ice cubes
  • 4 cinnamon sticks

Instructions
 

  • Add the molasses, ground ginger, and ground cinnamon to a cocktail shaker. Stir until the molasses loosens and the spices blend evenly.
  • Pour in the bourbon and fill the shaker halfway with ice cubes. Shake for 20 seconds to chill and combine the mixture.

  • Top each glass with ginger beer and stir gently once.
  • Place one cinnamon stick in each glass before serving.

Notes

Mix the molasses and spices ahead of time if you want to speed up assembly at the party. Use a lighter hand with the molasses if you prefer a less sweet drink. The cinnamon sticks add both aroma and a stirrer, so skip them only if you have no extras on hand.
