- Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Notes
For a stronger cinnamon flavor, add a cinnamon stick to the syrup while simmering. Adjust the amount of heavy cream to your preference for a thinner or thicker martini. Use store-bought sugar cookie crumbles or make your own for garnish.
