What is the best way to muddle the cubes?
The saturate step is key! Adding a small amount of liquid (water, spirits, or tea) and letting it sit for 30 seconds softens the cube. Once it’s saturated, use a firm twisting motion with your Muddler to create a smooth, grit-free syrup.
How do I get the most flavor out of the Lucky Charms for the cereal milk?
For the best flavor, let the cereal steep in the milk for at least 10–15 minutes before straining; this creates that authentic bottom of the bowl sweetness.
