Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Infuse the Spices

    In a small saucepan, combine the star anise, cinnamon stick, and fennel seeds with 1 cup of water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool down. Strain the mixture and set the spice-infused water aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the Drink

    In a mixing glass, combine the whiskey blend, Baijiu, cane juice, and 1 oz of the spice-infused water. Add ice and stir well for about 30 seconds until chilled.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Strain into an Old Fashioned glass over a large ice cube. Garnish with the orange peel. Optionally, you can express the oils from the orange peel over the drink before placing it in the glass.
