Product Description
Welcome to Badass Bitters DIY Cocktail Bitters Kits!
What are bitters?
Bitters fill a unique niche in the history of medicine, food, and drink. The story begins with the alchemical arts in ancient Egypt and ends in America in a cocktail glass. The ancients made the first bitters by extracting the healing (and flavor) qualities of flowers, peels, seeds, barks, and herbs through an infusion process using wine and, later, distilled alcohol.
Why are bitters used in cocktails?
In 1806, the first publication of the word “cocktail” and its definition appeared in The Balance, Columbian Repository in Hudson, New York: “…COCKTAIL, then, is a stimulating liquor, comprised of spirits of any kind, sugar, water, and bitters.” By the early twentieth century, cocktail culture flourished, with bitters as its defining ingredient. Today, you become the alchemist-mixologist with our Badass Bitters DIY educational kit, infusing and making bitters. Badass.
