There are some flavors that seem lacking in everyday cuisine and the humble bitter is a fine example. There are tons of recipes online that include the distinct adventure of bitters, and what could be better than making your own? This week’s flashback comes from the pages of CRAFT Volume 10. Written by Portland’s own Sister Diane Gilleland, this bitters DIY not only teaches you how to concoct your own, but gives some great resources at the end too. Did I mention bitters make great homemade presents? Just sayin.

Bitters add a little depth and mystery to the flavor of cocktails and nonalcoholic drinks. You can buy them in most supermarkets, but why not make your own? It’s so easy, and you can experiment with all kinds of flavors.
You can follow this bitters recipe, find a recipe online, or create something of your own. It’s important to have at least one bittering agent in the mix, like gentian or quassia. Aside from that, you can have fun mixing various flavors. It’s a great way to make your party beverages truly special!
