Trinidad Bitters Sour

The Trinidad Bitters Sour is an unconventional cocktail that uses Angostura bitters as the base, defying traditional mixology rules. Created by New York bartender Giuseppe Gonzalez in 2008, it pays homage to a friend from Trinidad. This cocktail is renowned for its high bitters content and unique balance.
