Understanding Bitters: History & Uses by sachin rana is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Bitters are alcoholic liquids that are heavily flavored with herbs, peels, bark, spices, and bitter tasting roots. In the 1800s, many brands were developed as supposed cure-alls for various ailments, allowing drinkers to avoid taxes and stigma. While bitters were once used as medicines, they are now commonly used to flavor cocktails and coffee. Bitters come in spirit-based or wine-based varieties and can be used for flavoring or as digestive aperitifs.
