Steps:

• Combine the stock, whiskey, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small pot. Bring it to a low boil over medium heat while you stir it a couple of times. Then add the carrots and let the mixture gently boil together for about 20 minutes. The liquid will reduce to a syrup coating the carrots. Depending on the size of the carrots, there may be excess syrup. Reserve it as a topping for later on ice cream or pancakes sealed in the refrigerator!
