Don’t be bitter, and don’t be left out!

This is the final week, ladies and germs, to enter the Don’t Be Bitter contest. We’ve had fewer entries than I expected, which means I hope you’re all just a bunch of procrastinators like I am. Go back to the original post to review entry guidelines. Also, if you have entered, please check back in the original post to make sure either that there’s a pingback to your post or that you’ve left a comment with a link to your post. Or both! You have a rare bottle of bitters to lose, so a belt-and-suspenders approach makes sense.

How much is a dash?

March 3, 2007

Commentor Robert Kraus writes: How much is a dash of bitters? I always measure mine by the drop. I want my drink using bitters to taste the same as it did the last time. This is a very good question. I usually just do a quick dash of the bitters bottle into my shaker for [...]

Wow! 21 entries this time! That’s a great turnout, and I hope I didn’t miss anyone. Pardon the roughness of my prose here, but I wanted to get this post up so everyone can start reading through the entries. Consider this a rough draft. I’ll clean up the links and correct any errors later, so [...]

MxMo 9: Bitters

November 13, 2006

For MxMo 9, I wanted to go a little crazy and make my own batch of bitters. My limoncello experiment worked well enough that bitters seemed a logical next step. Now, Darcy O’Neil reviewed the new book The Art of the Bar, back in September, and with his review, he included a bitters recipe from [...]
