[violentblue]

anyone tried this stuff, its a little sweet but I do like it strait or on ice.

wondering if anyone knows how to make something comparable?

Never had that but Iv had what was could firewater if it is like that just use extract like they use in candy --add sugar to suite

I've tried the cinnamon extract, didn't taste right. but did some experimenting, and found something that comes close.

I started out with some white rum, cause thats what I had, corn wiskey would be better I'm sure

added a good measure of powdered cinnamon (not sure exacly how much I used), but kept adding a little at a time untill it took on the cinnamon twang and heat.
shook it every couple hours to keep the cinnamon in suspesnion, then after a day or so, filtered it out with a cloth. then allowed it a couple days for the rest of the cinnamon to settle.
used corn syrup to add a little sweetness and theckening.

its a different color than the stor bought kind but th taste is very close.

It tastes a whole lot like the cinamon heart candies they have around valantines day (around here anyway) If you know what I mean, I'd take a handful and dissolve them in water (boil?) to make a flavor syrup. Never tried it but I think that's how I'd go about it.
