Apple, vanilla and a hint of Scotch and cinnamon- reminiscent of the dessert but a good deal drier.

WOW. This was outstanding. Did cut back slightly on the cinnamon sugar syrup to adjust to our taste. Wanted a cocktail to go with a Hungarian dinner, and this was perfect. Shades of the old Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Would make again, but may try using Goldschlager to replace the cinnamon sugar syrup.

Agreed. Cinnamon spice is crucial to this cocktail. So much so that I've swapped simple syrup for cinnamon syrup in the recipe above.
