Bitters!
Over the last few years cocktails have experienced a renaissance,
and out the heart and soul of the movement comes a resurgence of
the use and making of bitters.
Originally created as an elixir for the promotion of health and
digestion, the making of bitters has become a fine art akin to the
cocktail itself. No longer is the choice limited to Angostura and
Peychaud's, now there is a wide ranging choice of types and flavors.
Almost every bartender has his own special formula.
Brad Thomas Parsons new book Bitters came out in November 2011 and
is in great demand. He gives just as he says in the title: A Spirited
History of a Classic Cure-All. I read our advance copy and thoroughly
enjoyed it (Dandelion Botanical Company was featured in a few of
the photos and mentioned several times in the text, so we got to
have our own copy - Thanks Brad ! ). I am also making one of the
recipes with plans to do more - I can't wait to try them out!
So, if you need ingredients to create your own personal bitters
and maybe a copy of the book - you are in the right place! :)
