Think of it like seasoning for a cocktail; just a few shakes will brighten the flavours. Peychaud's Aromatic Cocktail Bitters is made with pure grain alcohol infused with flavourings including bitter gentian root, anise, and mint and has a pungent, woody flavour. Synonymous with New Orlean's cocktail culture, it's an essential ingredient in a Sazerac or Mint Julep cocktail. Bitters can also be used in vinaigrettes or to finish rich sauces for game meat like venison or elk.
