Falernum...Fa-Lehr-num...however you want to pronounce it. Falernum syrup is a classic cocktail addition that's often found in tiki drinks. It's a little complicated to make as you will find out in this weeks episode. But let me tell ya it's well worth it! Plus this syrup will be needed for a special Halloween cocktail I'll be making in the coming weeks.

FALERNUM SYRUP
--------------------------------------
INGREDIENTS FOR FALERNUM
2 tablespoons blanched, slivered almonds
40 whole cloves, crushed
3/4 cup (6 ounces) white rum
Finely grated zest of 9 medium limes, with no traces of white pith
1 (3-inch piece) fresh ginger, peeled and julienned
1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons superfine sugar
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon warm water
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice, strained
1/4 teaspoon almond extract

HOW TO MAKE
1. Toast the almonds and cloves in a small, dry frying pan over medium heat until the almonds are golden and the cloves are aromatic, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat to cool slightly, about 3 minutes.
2. Place cloves, almonds, rum, lime zest, and ginger in a 2-cup nonreactive container with a tight fitting lid. Cover, shake to combine, and let mixture sit for 24 hours at room temperature.
3. Combine sugar and water in a 1-quart container with a tight fitting lid. Cover and shake until all the sugar has dissolved and the mixture looks clear, about 5 minutes. (By not heating the sugar-water mixture, the simple syrup will be less dense and crisper than a cooked syrup.) You should have 1 3/4 cups; set aside.
4. After 24 hours, strain the rum mixture through a moistened cheesecloth or several layers of paper towels set in a fine mesh strainer over a small bowl. Taking care not to rip the cloth or paper towels, press the solids against the strainer to extract all the liquid. Discard the solids.
5. Add the strained liquid, lime juice, and almond extract to the reserved simple syrup. Shake until combined. Keep refrigerated for up to 1 month.
