• 3 cups nuts of choice: raw macadamias, pecans, hazelnuts, walnuts, almonds
• 5 tbsp organic golden cane sugar (or sugar of choice)
• 2 tsp ground cinnamon
• ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp crushed chili flakes
• ½ cup maple syrup
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
• 2-4 tsp Jack Daniel’s Gentleman Jack

Preheat oven to 350F. Place all ingredients in a large bowl, toss well to coat. Spread nuts on a silicone lined baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, tossing to coat at the halfway mark. Remove from oven and let cool for 2 minutes. Use a metal spoon to scrape through and break up the nuts before they set too hard. Sugar will harden more as it cools. Divide into pretty jars, add a festive ribbon and gift with Jack Daniel’s Gentleman Jack!
