Why would anyone want to put something called "Bitters" into a drink? In fact, Bitters are critical in the best drinks. The first publication of a bartenders' guide which included cocktail recipes was in 1862 - How to Mix Drinks; The Bon Vivant's Companion, by "Professor" Jerry Thomas. This guide featured 10 recipes for drinks called "Cocktails" in addition to recipes for Punches, Sours, and Slings. The effect of Bitters in a drink is to balance, round out, and add complexity to the flavor. Your mouth has taste receptors for sour, sweet, and salty, and it also has a receptor for bitter. The more receptors triggered as a drink tickles on the way down, the more interesting the drink. You know you have used Bitters correctly when the person enjoying the drink says, "Wow, there is something going on in the background of that drink". Consider that a slam-dunk.
