If you're fond of sweet, candy inspired cocktails and like Almond Roca, I have the perfect cocktail for you. All you need now is an excuse and a few moments at the end of the day to enjoy it.
Buttercrunch candy is like toffee but made with less butter and heated to the hard crack candy stage so you get a crunchy texture. The ingredients are butter, sugar, corn syrup, chopped almonds and a chocolate coating. I'm addicted to the stuff so a cocktail recipe was going to happen.
