The complex flavors in the craft cocktail mixer pair with aged spirits, like bourbon or rye whiskey, or even aged rum, scotch & other dark spirits. - AWARD WINNER - Bittermilk No.1 Old Fashioned was the drink category winner of Garden & Gun magazine’s prestigious “Made in the South” Awards in 2013, and the product line has won 7+ Specialty Food Association’s SOFI Awards, including Outstanding Product Line and Best Cold Beverage. - BOURBON BARREL AGED - Unique from other old fashioned mixes, Bittermilk old fashioned syrup is aged in freshly emptied, once-used Willett bourbon barrels to add complexity and allow the flavors intensify as it takes on notes of bourbon and charred white oak. - SIMPLE TO USE - Just add booze. Stir 1 Part Bittermilk No.1 to 4 Parts Spirit with lots of ice, and garnish with an orange peel. The most complex and perfect old fashioned made at home with just two ingredients. Adjust the ratio recipe to your taste, and mix with your spirit of choice. Mixes best with aged spirits. Makes 17 or more cocktails per bottle. - NO ARTIFICIAL INGREDIENTS - More than just bitters! We’ve taken classic bittering agents, like gentian root and cinchona bark, along with freshly milled spiced, burnt golden cane sugar and fresh orange peel, and slowly aged it all in bourbon barrels. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00MNT1398 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,108 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #2 in Cocktail Bitters | | Brand Name | Bittermilk | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 2,527 Reviews | | Flavor | No.1 Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00852175005003 | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Weight | 1 pounds | | Liquid Contents Description | Beverage Syrup | | Manufacturer | Bittermilk | | Model Number | 0852175005003 | | Part Number | 0852175005003 | | Product Shelf Life | 2 years | | Special Ingredients | Fresh Orange Peel, Organic Gentian Root | | Specialty | Gluten free, Lactose free, Low Sodium, Natural, Nonfat, Organic | | Sweetness Description | Sweet | | UPC | 852175005003 | | Unit Count | 8.5 Fluid Ounces | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Bittermilk - **Caffeine Content Description:** Caffeinated - **Flavor:** No.1 Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned - **Item Form:** Liquid - **Item Weight:** 1.03 Pounds ## Images ![Bittermilk No.1 Old Fashioned Mix, 8.5 oz - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81TRKdsHf6L.jpg) ![Bittermilk No.1 Old Fashioned Mix, 8.5 oz - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81hTSPye+AL.jpg) ![Bittermilk No.1 Old Fashioned Mix, 8.5 oz - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71vS8FK-HVL.jpg) ![Bittermilk No.1 Old Fashioned Mix, 8.5 oz - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71GA6wJAcML.jpg) ![Bittermilk No.1 Old Fashioned Mix, 8.5 oz - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81EiVbXe0TL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Flavor** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What are the ingredients?
