History
Angostura Bitters were invented in the 19th century by a German doctor working in Venezuela. The product was initially sold as a tonic with medicinal properties and thought to cure upset stomachs and hiccups. The bitters are today made in Trinidad using a recipe known only to one person.
Usage
Whilst today there is a thriving market in bitters for a long time Angostura Bitters were one of the few commercially available cocktail bitters. They're an essential ingredient in a number of classic recipes including the Old Fashioned, The Champagne Cocktail and the Manhantten.
A few dashes of bitters can be used to balance out the sweetness created by adding syrups to a drink. It can also be used as an aromatic garnish for cocktails made with egg whites.
