Boker’s bitters are one of the oldest types of bitters we know about. While the company no longer exists, the Bitter Truth has come up with a replica version that aims to come as close as possible to it.
If you can’t get a hold of Boker’s bitters, consider using a mixture of Angostura, Cacao and Cardamom bitters.
The original version of this recipe called for 2 or 3 dashes of absinthe and 2 dashes of Boker’s bitters. Feel free to adjust based on your taste.
