Tried it with an 18 year old rum and it immediately became one of my absolute favorites. I didn't use a cinnamon stick though as I didn't have one at hand, need to try in the future.

I like to just build it in the glass and give it a quick stir with the cinnamon stick.

It's a sweet after dinner drink.
