Description

Make your own bitters at home to make stronger your medicine cabinet, and your bar!

Used since the Middle Ages, bitters are made by combining more than a few plant botanicals and/or spices with 100-proof alcohol and allowing them to take a seat until the bitter and medicinal qualities have been extracted. Just a small amount of the resulting liquid can then be used to stimulate the digestive system and promote healthy digestion. That is why “apertifs” and “digestifs” are so popular–both then and now!

DIY Bitters is a how-to guide that explores the history and health benefits of bitters, and shows you easy methods to make your own bitters at home, for use on my own or in cocktails, tonics, and even main meals.

Herbalists Jovial King and Guido Mase, owners of the bitters company Urban Moonshine, teach you easy methods to make recipes for classic bitters like orange and angostura, or explore more innovative bitters like elderflower-echinacea-honey and chocolate love tonic. You can even find a guide for creating your own unique flavors from the plants and ingredients you have available.

Whether enjoyed as an apertif, digestif, or as a treatment to settle an upset stomach, bitters are back!
