Our aperitivo is a bittersweet rendition of the classic "red bitter" but with more character. We infuse 17 fresh and dried organic botanicals such as gentian, kola nut, hibiscus, and rhubarb root in non-GMO neutral grain spirit for two weeks. At that point, we add water and fresh orange peels (2 oranges per bottle!) and let that steep overnight. We strain and filter the resulting tincture and add organic cane sugar and cochineal to achieve the ruby hue we all love.
