You are going to fall in love with this Cinnamon Gin Sour cocktail recipe!

This fabulously festive sour cocktail recipe combines gin, maple syrup and lemon juice in the most wonderful way. With that gorgeous colour, snowy foam on top and warm touches of spice, it is simply divine!

Here, the gin's rich, delectably complex tones work brilliantly with the luscious maple syrup and its sweet, aromatic tones. The fresh lemon juice then adds that quintessential hit of bright sour that lifts the whole experience.

The star anise and cinnamon garnishes add a festive spice that is so deliciously inviting.

The egg white is optional in this sour recipe, but without it, you don’t get that pillowy foam top to rest your garnishes on, so we recommend sticking with it here. (If you don’t want to use the egg, skip the first shake and go straight to shaking with ice).
