For some folks and their cola preferences, two brand names may come to mind. But for those with a flavor for the experimental, root beer is it! No wonder: the roots of root beer lie in centuries-old herbal medicines, later popularized in the 19th century as a soda. Fast forward decades later, and we found ourselves satisfying bartenders with experimental streaks. They wanted bitters based on root beer. And after two years of R&D, we delivered a result worthy of the Bittercube name. Earthy, yet cool, Root Beer Bitters complement barrel-aged spirits with minty, herbaceous notes from birch and wintergreen balanced by robust spices like anise and cinnamon. Its profile delivers a bold twist to boozy standards like the Manhattan and Vieux Carre – or a dash of delight atop a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Whether you’re tinkering at home or adding punch to your bar program, Root Beer Bitters add distinction with every drop.
