The first genuinely cold night of the year, when the sour you've made all summer wants a sweater. Maple subs in for simple syrup at the same measure but brings its own flavor along, so the bitters are what keep this from tasting like breakfast. Cinnamon goes in the shaker — dusted on top it arrives all at once.
