Bittermilk No.1 Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned Mix - Drink Mixes for Cocktails

Handcrafted by Bartenders, Bittermilk's Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned Mixer Offers a Complex Flavor Profile

Bittermilk is a line of high-quality cocktail mixers crafted by bartenders using real, all-natural ingredients. Their Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned Mixer, in particular, stands out with its unique flavor profile and award-winning status.

Aged in freshly emptied, once-used Willett bourbon barrels, this old fashioned mixer takes on notes of bourbon and charred white oak, adding complexity and depth of flavor. The mixture of Florida golden cane sugar, burnt sugar, fresh orange peel, spices, gentian root, cinchona bark, and tartaric acid results in a strong, bittersweet taste that is perfectly balanced.

Recommended for use with bourbon or rye whiskey, the Bittermilk old fashioned mixer follows a 1:4 ratio recipe - just stir 1 part mixer with 4 parts spirit and lots of ice, then garnish with an orange peel. This simple two-ingredient approach allows you to craft the most complex and perfect old fashioned cocktail right at home, adjusting the ratio to your personal taste.

Bittermilk's commitment to quality and real ingredients has not gone unnoticed. The product line has earned numerous accolades, including a Gold Medal in the 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, the prestigious "Made in the South" award from Garden & Gun magazine, and over 7 Specialty Food Association SOFI Awards.

With deep roots in the restaurant and bar industry, the founders of Bittermilk sought to simplify the process of making craft cocktails at home. After working in several restaurants and opening their own cocktail bar in Charleston, SC, they recognized the need for quality, balanced mixers that could elevate the homemade cocktail experience.

Unlike many overly sweet or sour pre-made mixers on the market, Bittermilk uniquely highlights the bittering agents used in each product, such as gentian root and cinchona bark, to achieve a truly complex flavor profile. The labor-intensive process, from sourcing ingredients to bottling, is all done in-house by the small Bittermilk team in Charleston.

Bittermilk's Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned Mixer is just one of the brand's diverse offerings, which also include Tom Collins, Smoked Honey Whiskey Sour, New Orleans Old Fashioned, Charred Grapefruit Tonic, Oaxacan Old Fashioned, and Gingerbread Old Fashioned. Each mixer is preservative-free and designed to pair perfectly with a variety of aged spirits, from bourbon and rye to rum and tequila.

Whether you're a seasoned cocktail enthusiast or simply looking to elevate your home bar, Bittermilk's Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned Mixer is a must-try, offering a complex and rewarding drinking experience in a convenient, easy-to-use format.
