I'll often order a "soda and bitters" (carbonated water with a few dashes of this) when I'm out with friends but don't want to pound alcohol. It looks like a cocktail (so folks don't ask why I'm not drinking), keeps me hydrated, gives me something to do with my hands, and tastes like Christmas. Highly recommend.
I don't know why I never tried this, thanks!
Just for those who don’t want to drink for religious or other reasons bitters are often alcoholic. A dash or six in a half litre of soda is still functionally nothing but just so’s you know.
