How it is made
Margarita Bitters are typically made from a blend of high-proof alcohol, botanicals, and flavoring agents such as citrus peels, herbs, and spices. The ingredients are steeped together to extract their flavors, resulting in a concentrated liquid that is used in small dashes to enhance cocktails.
History
Bitters have a long history dating back to ancient times when they were used for medicinal purposes. Margarita Bitters, specifically, emerged as a popular cocktail enhancement in the 20th century, coinciding with the rise of tequila-based cocktails. Their unique flavor profile has made them a staple in modern mixology.
In cocktails
Bartenders typically use Margarita Bitters in small dashes to enhance the flavor of Margaritas and other tequila-based cocktails. They can also be added to other drinks to provide a citrusy and herbal note, making them versatile in cocktail creation. When serving, a few dashes can elevate the drink's complexity without overpowering the primary flavors.
Worth knowing
Margarita Bitters can also be used in non-alcoholic beverages to add complexity and flavor without the alcohol.
