The folks behind The Franklin Mortgage & Investment Co. have developed quite a reputation by updating and reinventing time-honored classics. Their low-key speakeasy atmosphere specializes in pre-Prohibition cocktails. With this in mind, we asked our friend and Head Bartender, Al Sotack to work his magic with our historical spirit, ROOT– we knew he wouldn’t disappoint!

Al was kind enough to allow us to film him in action and share his recipe– better start channeling your inner-mixologist!

1/2 Part Rich Demerara Syrup
