Instructions

Make the simple syrup by heating the sugar, water, and cinnamon sticks on the stove top in a small sauce pan. Bring to a simmer and let simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. This will make enough syrup for multiple cocktails.
To prepare one cocktail, fill a glass with ice. Add cinnamon syrup, whiskey, cranberry juice, and sparkling water.
If you want to get fancy, poke a hole in a few fresh cranberries and string them on a sprig of fresh rosemary. Add to cocktail for garnish. Swirl and enjoy!
