I turned up the volume a bit on this delicious tipple because I thought it needed a bit more kick! I followed the ingredient quantities but simmered the spices in the nectar for about 10 minutes and then cooled the whole lot before straining. The simmering imparted a denser, more mellow flavour (as you would expect and the drink offered just the right amount of spice without being overpowering. Absolutely recommend this one (but do think about simmering the spices for a richer taste sensation.
