Bitters have a fascinating history, dating back centuries to early apothecaries and herbalists who crafted plant-based tinctures to treat a range of ailments. Used as medicinal tonics in ancient cultures, bitters combined herbs, spices, and barks for remedies that eventually became popular in cocktails. By the 1800s, bitters were essential to classic cocktails like the Old Fashioned and Manhattan, adding complexity and depth to the drinks.

Today, bitters are beloved for their ability to balance and enhance flavors, bridging sweet and savory notes in cocktails, mocktails, and even culinary dishes.
