½ oz. milk
For spiced simple syrup:
4 cups sugar

To Prepare
To make spiced simple syrup:
Combine two parts sugar and one part water in a pot. Set heat to medium-low and stir until sugar completely dissolves. Add cinnamon stick and cloves, and remove from heat. Allow to cool completely, then remove spices and use (stored refrigerated in an air-tight container, leftover syrup should last up to 6 months).
To make cocktail:
Combine all ingredients in an ice-filled shaker.
Shake vigorously and serve.
