Orange Bitters

[Icefever]

Now I'm mixed up with you gin redknecks I've been surfing the net for info...came up with this.

I'm sure Scarecrow won't mind my posting this??? from the Aussie site...if it does then it can be taken down...

1 litre 95% alcohol
200g dried orange peel
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/2 teaspoon coriander
4 cardamom pods
20 drops gentian extract

Go easy with the Gentian extract. It is extremely bitter.
Stick it all in a bottle for a couple of weeks.
Give it a good shake every day.

Once you have the flavour you like, strain it and Bob's ya Uncle.

Cripes mate, was that a typo? what is genital extract?

Serious for just a moment, is this a gin recipe?

That sounds like a nice accompaniment to a London Dry like Booths or Gordons.
Stir in a few drops with ice, sliced Orange and FT Mediterranean Tonic.
Thanks Ice. Is that a pint or a half.

Ice your gential bitters are naffin' fortunes and take months to arrive.
So I have a nice bag of dried Bitter Orange peel to try.

I'd imagine that would last a really long time too. You'd only use a tiny bit at a time.
