Tips
If you don’t want to buy a full bottle of Fireball (I think it comes in a few sizes), you could always buy a mini-bar size to try out first.
If you don’t like strong cocktails, just lessen the amount of alcohol you use. For example, if it calls for 2 ounces of whiskey, start with 1 ounce and taste to make sure it’s balanced with the other flavors.
You may lose a little of the cinnamon flavor in this instance, but I always like to make sure you know you modify your cocktail recipes to suit your tastes and needs.
