Gin and Bitters Cocktail

Amplify the flavors of a Gin and Tonic by adding two dashes of bitters.

Equipment

  • Balloon glass

Ingredients

  • 2 Oz. Gin
  • 2 Dashes Orange bitters
  • Tonic
  • Your favorite garnish

Instructions

  • Chill your balloon glass! These glasses are the best for letting the aromas collect above your drink.
  • Start to layer your drink, after you put some fresh ice in your glass.
  • Gin first.
  • Then two or three dashes of your favorite bitter. Angostura is a great one to use.
  • Top with tonic. Use a neutral tonic, like Indian or Lite Indian, to allow the bitters to stand out.
  • Garnish with large slices of apple and orange. You can also add some orange oil to intensify the garnish flavor.
