Drink soda water w/ bitters. Looks like a drink, tastes good, and satisfies anyone actually drinking.
I drink regularly; but every now and then I'll go a week or month without drinking. I'm currently in the middle of one of these periods; but I've still gone out to happy hour or events that involved drinking every day since it's started. I manage to have just as much fun sober drinking soda + bitters.
- Baeocystin 10y agoSlightly OT, but do you have a recommendation for bitters other than Angostura? I like it, but I'd like to diversify my home cabinet.
- fiddlerwoaroof 10y agoFee Brothers make some decent bitters, I have an Aztec Chocolate one that's really good with soda or in drinks.
- Baeocystin 10y agoI'll check them out. Thanks.
- SeoxyS 10y agoPeychaud is probably the second biggest brand. Since I drink this at bars, it really depends on what they have on hand. Most good bars will have a selection of 5-10+ different bitters. I like grapefruit bitters; I've also had really good spicy chili bitters. Many like orange bitters. Just ask the bartender for recs, they usually love chatting about this stuff. The best part of this drink is that they rarely charge me anything for it. I'll usually tip a couple bucks per drink, and everybody ends up happy!
- Baeocystin 10y agoI'll give Peychaud a look. Thanks for the rec.
