I use the cheap Badia canela cinnamon sticks and they are pretty short sticks so I use 5 of those in my syrup. I do not recall steeping 2 hours in the recipes, but re-reading, it is there. I need to do that. Mine is not as strong as BG's, but I think his is twice as strong as it should be. I have always simmered 15 minutes and strained. I order my cinnamon sticks from Spice Barn and re-use them a good bit. I get the 10 inch ones. After a bit, they get retired when I make my next batch of cinnamon syrup and crush them up for it. Now, what is the recipe for #7?
