If you’re looking for a complex and robust orange bitters for your vintage and modern cocktail recipes, look no further than this riff on the style from the experts at Angostura.

Cocktail bitters are spirits infused with flavors, typically from plants, fruits, or spices. They date as far back as the early 1800’s, originally used to assist with digestion and cure stomach aches. Infusing your cocktail recipes with just a few drops of bitters will give them an additional level of flavor depth. Many bitters are also renowned for their ability to cure hangovers.

Once upon a time (i.e., in the 1800s) orange bitters were a fixture in bars and indispensable to many cocktail recipes. After Prohibition, they fell into relative obscurity and became nearly impossible to find. That is, until the 21st century cocktail revival. Now, it seems like every bitters manufacturer worth its weight has a orange bitters offering resurrected from vintage formulas. But a handful stand out among the crowd.

Angostura Orange Bitters is unquestionably one of the best. It boasts a floral, citrus-forward aroma and tastes clearly of sweet blood oranges with spicy notes of cardamom and coriander that give way to a dry, bitter orange finish. In sum, it’s a beautifully balanced, versatile recipe that complements vodka, gin, whiskey, and rum cocktails, and can also be used in sweet and savory cooking applications.

Try a combination of Angostura Orange along with the classic Angostura recipe in your next Old Fashioned, use a few dashes to add complexity to a Margarita, or get creative and devise an original drink. No matter how you use it, you’ll appreciate this Angostura aromatic bitters’ unparalleled quality.
