Fighting Irish: a St. Patrick's Day Cocktail

This St Patrick's day is on a Monday but that doesn't mean you can't have a cocktail or two. This cocktail is easy to drink and make. A perfect recipe for a Monday.

Fighting Irish

Irish Whiskey

Ingredients

2 oz Irish Whiskey

1 oz Lime Juice

1/2 oz Simple Syrup

Dash of Cinnamon

Dash of Cayenne

Optional: Top of Sparkling Water

Recipe: In a cocktail shaker with ice, pour all ingredients. Close and shake until cold. Strain into an old fashioned glass with ice. I prefer a large ice cube because it opens up things slowly. If you are not a spicy person, I would highly suggest a light dash and use sparkling water to cut down the spicy taste.
