Bittered Sling - Grapefruit and Hops Bitters (120ml)
Bitter and herbaceous Grapefruit, with notes of spring and forest. The fresh-cut grass of the extract family. Made with Organic wild cascade hops from the British Columbia.
Grapefruit is a natural lymphatic stimulant, promoting muscle and joint health, and enhances the body’s circulation.
Hops act as an effective sedative, relieves insomnia and is widely used as a nerve remedy.
Beverage Recommendations Aromatic creations beg for this extract – an Aviation, a Negroni, a Caprihinia, a Margarita! This extract LOVES white spirits! As is true with our entire line, this extract is amazing just in sparkling water – thirst quenching and palate-cleansing.
Cooking Recommendations Brilliant with fish and shellfish, replacing the final squeeze of citrus to deglaze or season. We love the herbaceous bitterness which pushes forward rich and spicy cuisine.
