what do you use bitters in
The Manhattan is arguably the most popular drink to use bitters. The flavor of the bitters is very prominent since it is a simple drink. There are many variations on the drink, but Manhattans are commonly made using 2 oz. of whiskey, rye or bourbon, 3/4 oz. of sweet vermouth and 1 dash of bitters. Stir the mixture, pour it into a glass and top it off with a maraschino cherry.
Angostura bitters (English: /Ã¦ÅÉ¡ÉËstjÊÉrÉ/) is a concentrated bitters, or botanically infused alcoholic mixture, made of water, 44.7% ethanol, gentian, herbs and spices,[1] by House of Angostura in Trinidad and Tobago. It is typically used for flavouring beverages or (less often) food.
