Irish Cream Syrup

• 1 Cup Water
• 1 Cup Granulated Sweetener (or equivalent)
• 1/4 Cup Dutch Cocoa
• 1 Tablespoon Vanilla
• 1 Teaspoon Almond Extract
• 1 Teaspoon Cinnamon

Whisk it, simmer it, whisk it, let it cool, whisk it, put it in a pourable container. The cocoa is going to settle and you're going to have to mix it around, so look for a container that you can shake or at least swirl real good without coating your walls with dark chocolatey syrup.

For Irish cream, make some strong coffee, use half coffee, half milk, a splash of syrup, and a splash of Irish whiskey.

Caveats:

• Irish cream doesn't have cinnamon, but I like it.
• That's probably more cocoa than you need for flavor, but I like it.
