Cherry bark vanilla bitters


Gin Rickey

Named after Colonel Joseph Kyle Rickey, the Gin Rickey was born in 1880 at Shoemaker's Bar in Washington DC. The Colonel drank whiskey with lime and seltzer, and so the drink was whiskey based until around 1882 when the more 'lime-friendly" spirit of gin became a more popular addition. The Colonel was adamant about sweetener in his refreshment, stating that "sugar warms the blood", and so the drink is traditionally made sans sugar. We find the cocktail is more balanced with even just a splash of simple syrup. Additionally, we toss in a dash of Cherry Bark Vanilla Bitters who's implied sweetness helps balance the drink without additional sugar. Sorry Colonel...

Chipotle cacao bitters


Baker Rifle

This cocktail is a nod to the true significance of Cinco de Mayo. Commonly mistaken for Mexican Independence Day (which falls on September 16th), the 5th of May actually marks the Mexico's victory against the French in the Battle of Puebla in 1862. Supplied with Baker Rifles by the British army, the outnumbered Mexican forces were able to defeat the French military and offer a boost of patriotic pride to the nation.

Blackstrap bitters


Champs Elysee

Much like the Sidecar, this classic trades orange liquer for the herbaceousness of Green Chartreuse. The citrusy herbs in Genepy make it an arguably more suitable modifier for this cocktail.

Blackstrap bitters


Over the Sea

This variation on the French 75 folds in scotch and pear for a unique, seasonal riff enhanced with the warming spice of Blackstrap bitters.
