What is the mixing ratio for the Bittermilk No.1 Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned Mix?

The Charleston, South Carolina-based company designed the mix to be used in a simple 1:1 ratio with your chosen bourbon or rye whiskey. You simply combine one part Bittermilk No.1 with one part whiskey, stir with ice, and serve.

Does the Bittermilk No.1 mix already contain alcohol?

No, the mixer itself is entirely non-alcoholic, despite being aged in bourbon barrels to extract complex flavors. It is designed to be a bittersweet modifier that you mix with your own whiskey at home.

What specific ingredients give Bittermilk No.1 its complex flavor profile?

The mix is crafted with raw cane sugar and traditional bittering agents like gentian root and wormwood. The entire batch is then aged in freshly dumped Kentucky bourbon barrels, which infuses the syrup with notes of oak and vanilla.

Can I use this Bittermilk mix for cocktails other than an Old Fashioned?

Yes, while formulated for an Old Fashioned, its rich, spiced, and bittersweet profile works exceptionally well in a Whiskey Sour or mixed with dark rum. Bartenders frequently use it as a versatile modifier to add barrel-aged character to original craft cocktails.
