Liking both tawny port and rum, this is an after-dinner cocktail perfect for us. Did shake it as I can get the cocktail much colder. Did leave out the sugar syrup and we felt the port would be sweet enough. This is a great after-dinner cocktail.

I think upping the Tawny and leaving off the sugar syrup will make that a total winner?

I tried it both ways and prefer it Stirred, FYI.
