Churchill’s Breakfast

×

Winston Churchill was said to have whiskey and a cigar with breakfast, and this cocktail is a delicious homage to his legacy. The flamed cinnamon stick compliments the rich spiciness of the rye, the sweetness of the maple, and bitterness of the coffee. Original recipe by Chef Steps.
