Australian Bitters Co. original Aromatic BittersAustralian Bitters is now available in three new flavours. The full range includes the original Aromatic Bitters, Orange, Grapefruit and Barrel Spice.
Each has been locally made from natural ingredients, including orange and grapefruit peel, herbs and spices. The flavours are extracted from the botanicals by the Australian Bitters Company and then added to a high proof alcohol. The mixture is then macerated until the ideal balance of flavours is achieved.
Australian Bitters are designed with leading bartenders and made to compliment any cocktail. Grapefruit Bitters can also be added to a gin and tonic for a refreshing citrus twist on the classic or a Hemmingway Daiquiri, while Orange Bitters make a great addition to an Old Fashioned and Barrel Spice Bitters to a Whiskey Sour.
