1
Prepare the Anise Infusion
In a small saucepan, combine the water and anise seeds. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes to extract the flavor from the seeds.
2
Dissolve the Sugar
Add the sugar to the saucepan with the anise infusion while it's still warm. Stir continuously until the sugar is fully dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
3
Combine Aguardiente
In a large pitcher, combine the cooled anise infusion with the aguardiente. Stir well to mix the flavors.
4
Chill the Mixture
Refrigerate the aguardiente mixture for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the drink to chill.

5
Prepare Glasses
Fill a shot glass or small tumbler with the chilled aguardiente mixture.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish each glass with a lime wedge and, if desired, a mint leaf or a cinnamon stick. Serve immediately and enjoy responsibly.
