Non-Alcoholic Bitters! Aromatic or Orange?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 июл 2024
- Non-Alcoholic Bitters are just what you need to kick off this Dry January, but will it be Aromatic or Orange? Today I’ll show you 2 recipes for how to make alcohol-free Aromatic (inspired by Angostura) and Orange (inspired by Regan’s) Bitters, taking inspiration from the specs and techniques shown in the book “Zero: A New Approach to Non-Alcoholic Drinks”. We’ll use glycerol instead of alcohol to extract flavors and we’ll start with first a sous vide method for bitters - which has appeared before on the channel - followed by a stovetop technique that will make it easier for everyone to make these at home! This can be the beginning of a series of episodes where we’ll make zero-proof spirits, liqueurs, amari and of course mocktails - if that’s what you’d like let me know in the comments! So whether it is Dry January, pregnancy, religion, health reasons, being underage or just a personal decision, pull up a chair and enjoy this 0% ABV episode. Cheers!

Alcohol free peychauds!
I really like that you guys are exploring the world of mocktails.
Exactly what i need when i want a cocktail but dont want to drink alcohol.
Thanks! Stay tuned 😉🥂
I love keeping myself busy with mixology stuff but also don't want to be drinking too much so these mocktail episodes are actually very exciting. I can't wait for the upcoming episodes.
That's a great way to keep things in balance. Cheers, Olaf!
Non alcoholic cocktails are such a second thought where I'm from and work. Its so depressing when mocktails are just juice and sugar. Glad there's videos coming out to support the sober drinkers. Nothing worse than everyone having nice drinks and that one person has a coke
I couldn't agree more! Cheers!
Excellent use of ingredients here. I’ll have to try it myself.
Thank you so much for doing this. I stumbled upon this video through my recommend - as a now lifetime sober person who loves DIY artisanal foods and beverages, I did miss seeing a cocktail being crafted for me, but now with this as a primer, and the book Zero, I feel like I can enjoy the craft again. 🍹
stay tuned 😉🥂
great video. great ideas for alcohol free bitters. Cool you can freeze batch some for later. thanks for sharing. cheers.
we need more of this kind of content , thank youu
I made an amazing mocktail for new years eve this year.
2oz over-extracted Earl Grey Tea
1/2oz Orgeat
1/2oz Lime Juice
1/2oz Ginger Beer
It was very good.
If I was to do it again, I'd maybe add an egg white, and use ginger beer like a seltzer for fizz-style cocktails (or half/half??). If I had these non-alcoholic bitters handy, I'd throw them on top for presentation and aroma.
Both bitters would work here great! I like your recipe, and thank you for sharing it with us! Cheers!
love this!
This is great, and I’m really looking forward to more mocktail episodes (both ingredients and recipes). Cheers!
More to come! Cheers!
Really looking forward to more Mocktails!
Love this! Thank you you've gotten my attention. I will keep checking for more recipes and ideas.
You are so welcome!
Thank you for always give us the best idea and new knowledge
You are welcome! Thank you for watching the episodes! Cheers!
Amazing ! Will be looking forward to see more mocktails episodes.
Awesome! Cheers!
Such a cool episode! Mocktails were superb!!
Thanks! 😊🥂
This is awesome, thank you!
Glad you like it!
Thanks Kevin! My dad is nearly 40 years sober, and this is so handy!
There will be more to come 😉 Cheers!
This is great! I would love to see the zero ABV Old fashioned!
Try out some different peels like bitter orange (Citrus × aurantium L) or bergamot oranges and maybe potassium sorbate can help to extend the shelf life of the bitters.
In general I wonder if it's possible to make alc.free gin at home using something like a steam juicer.
Thank you for the ideas! Cheers!
i'm totally waiting for the zero old fashioned! Keep up!
It's already on the channel: studio.ruclips.net/user/videoc5pVW8-elWQ/edit enjoy!
Love it ❤ thank you 🎉
You’re welcome 😊
Great episode. To see if you like the idea of bitters alone, try adding some you already have to club soda. I have been adding regular bitters to club soda for about a year. Not all of them are great, but I found that a dash of Regan's orange bitters in a glass of club soda is a lot like Seedlip Garden, a non-alcoholic distilled "spirit." It's pretty good any time of day.
Even if you're not going dry for January, adding bitters to club soda is a good way to cut out sugar and diet soda.
I agree with you. I love adding different bitters to soda too. Subtle but nice fizzy drink.
Zero percent series would be amazing! I've never thought about the possibility of alcohol-free bitters, amazing idea!
Glad you like them!
Yes… more zero proof please!! Thank you Kevin and your team!
Soon on the channel 😉
The Master....🙏
Another terrific video, Kevin! I imagine I've got no fewer than 12-15 different bitters. Only one or two of them are alcohol free, but a few of the brands out there make them. I've often thought of making my own bitters so this is great inspiration.
Thanks a lot Josh! I'm glad you find this episode inspirational. I wish you and your loved ones all the best in 2023!
Great format :D
Glad you think so!
Great content video Kevin, I love making craft cocktails at the Bar I work now, thank you for sharing your creative and innovative ideas, you should be hired at Drink Master as a Judge on this upcoming season 2
You are very welcome! Haha, maybe one day 😄
I was sooooo excited when you showed that book. I went straight to google just to be disappointed that there's no way to get it to Spain.
At least not under 100 euros.
I usually do my cocktails non alcoholic. I have the originals with alcohol in my repertoire, and I drink them from time to time or serve them to friends, but normally I only do non alcoholic.
Its easy if you aren´t looking to replicate exactly the original flavour, you can get really nice drinks. But if you have to imitate, I think the easier to do are vodka or gin cocktails, as vodka usually has no flavour, and gin has great non alcoholic options.
Then you will like more episodes inspired by this book. Cheers!
Would love to see you try out a non alcoholic amaro or vermouth for this series
Thank you for the idea. Cheers!
Fever Tree is the best, might need to whip up a batch of bitters to give it a try
They make some delicious tonics for sure! Let me know how you like it 🤩
There is zero proof of these bitters being anything but delicious 😉
Gotta 🤚 it to you on that one.
Love to see more 0abv episodes.
You should make non alcoholic shrubs next January
More please.
Masallah Brother, Huge Respect for You!
Hope to see more episodes about 0 ABV in the future, thank you Very Much!
cheers!
Ive recently purchased three of the books from The Aviary. Those guys do incredible stuff but they have such great equipment to get it done.
They are incredible indeed. Great book!
Many thanks for your video! Quick question, do you know of any bitters that resemble the taste of Cynar? we are looking for a non alcoholic substitute. Thanks!
Very nice, personally I'm a fan of old fashioned sodas myself, I even got a book about it called "Fix the Pumps" which has a lot of classic recipes from the time...back when a milk shake was ACTUALLY shaken in a Boston shaker and stuff like that, I've made a few and some recipes actually do call for bitters even for the non-alcoholic drinks to add a little extra flavor. I kinda wish there was a RUclips channel like this but for old fashioned soda fountain drinks...you'll find an occasional recipe done here and there but not a whole channel dedicated to stuff like egg flip drinks or milk shakes done in a Boston shaker and with either egg whites, egg yolks, or whole eggs in them...which to be honest I was dubious about as my stomach is not a fan of eggs by themselves..but I can use them in recipes and the texture of a shaken milkshake with a whole egg cracked into it a rather novel experience for someone in the modern age who's used to the kind of milkshakes from fast food places or ice cream shops. Also your mustache is nicely curled sir..I'm trying to grow mine out to do that but it's a chore to make sure both sides are the same length.
Fix the Pumps is a great book. The author of this book has an excellent RUclips channel that you might want to check it out. It's Art of Drink. Thank you for the mustache compliment. Glad you like it, and I am sure you'll find the best way to groom/trim yours. Cheers!
great video kevin
Thank you!
Out of all the things that can be made without alcohol, I definitely wasn't thinking to bitters!
Looking forward to some mocks too :)
Right! I hope you will like other zero cocktails episodes too. Cheers!
@@KevinKos how can someone not like your vids?
Love this video! Can you share what Caramel Food Coloring you used? Thanks :)
It's E150a.
KEVIN!!! Has anyone told you that you're the best dressed RUclipsr ever?? Anyways, this was very informative and interesting!!! I always learn a little something watching you videos!!! CHEERS to you and the crew!!!
Wow, thanks! You are the best, Tim! Cheers!
Hey Kevin. So glad that you have started exploring 0-proof world! Have you ever done extracts, bitters or other things with percolation method? It seems like it's pretty easy and fast way to make extracts. I think that with this method you can do better bitters, more flavorful than with sous vide. It may seem scary for some people, because the chemical stuff, some weird glass tubes, but it's really simple to use.
I've been thinking about extracting with alcohol, then evaporate the alcohol. What do you think? You can evaporate it in sous vide in 80-90°C, but I don't know how long would it take.
I am sure it's the best way to do it. Dary O'Neal from the Art of Drink RUclips channel is great with this technique.
You should be able to evaporate ethanol at around 76C - 80C to 90C would be boiling it off quite fast I would think. Probably best in a well ventilated area away from naked flame too! I need to look at the percolating method - sounds interesting!
Non alkohol Bourbon sounds nice. I would like to see how you make it. :)
Coming soon!
Can u plz explain of alcohol switch in next video
Love the helpful alternatives given. I might have to try this for a party or so later this year. With all you're promising, and with what other channels like The Wee Pearl are putting out, high quality zero abv cocktails may soon be available to all.
For these suspensions I'd try a way to centrifuge filter them, but making that would be an ordeal by itself.
Yes, that would work. A centrifuge is an expensive tool to have and I hope I will buy it one day.
Blue Curaçao can you make it?
Dear Kevin, I recently came across this and really wanna try to make these 0-proof things, however, cinchona bark is nowhere to be found where I live, is there any kind of barks/roots that can be used as a substitution for it?
I actually would appreciate a set if alcohol free episodes. Like on a regular basis. Once a month or so
Thank you for your feedback. Cheers!
Is it not possible to make the bitters as normal, with alcohol. And when its done steeping just vaporice the alcohol off the liquid then? It was just a thought i had
🎉🎉
After a busy December, a break from alcohol would be welcomed.
Indeed! 🥂
Good morning Mister Kos, If the questions haven't been ask (I did look but did not found it) where did you found your copy of Zero? I have been reading quiete a lot of book on cocktails from liquid inteligence to dead rabbit book. Since my wife is not drinking a single drop of alcool is would be great to work on nice 0ABV cocktail for her.
Hi! I bought it on Amazon. I am not sure if it's still available. Maybe check out their official website.
Indeed, i only found it in us import.
Wife… it is lucky she us nice and that I love her…
How much abv would a mocktail have if you just use regular bitters
Not much, but still some.
Yas! Please do more alcohol free spirits and substitutions for those of us with a lot of pregnant friends 😂
Noted. Cheers!
Finally, free alcohol bitter
Where did you get the book? 🙏🏻
I ordered it on Amazon. It was still available back then.
Just saw HTDs Dry January vid and was left unsatisfied, Exited for this series!
Yeah that dude was NOT feelin’ it
Not for vegans but, the whole milk or the egg yolk, help to clarify the bitter? will dirty the bitter?
I wouldn't do this extra step for bitters because you might lose a lot of flavor.
Is this on Amazon
Yes
do more zero proof episodes!
Can I make an alcoholic bitter with this recipe?
There are some alcoholic bitters recipes on my channel already. You might want to check them out. Cheers!
Thanks bro! I make drinks for my coworkers but one is halal so now I can make drinks for my homie. 👍🏻
Happy to help! Cheers!
This made me laugh... We are not using alcohol for extraction, but instead, we use glycerol.
Which... yes, it is not ethanol, but chemically speaking is still an alcohol. 😂
the stereo is the wrong way around. the sounds i see on the left are audible on the right
Thank you for letting us know. We will pay closer attention to this in future episodes. Great observing, by the way! Cheers!
@@KevinKos Haha no worries! Cheers!
Thanks Kevin 😍🙈 I'm Muslim I can't drink cocktails 💔 so plzr more vds like this , more mocktails nd recipe homemade free Gin nd free vodka or whiskey or cocktails like Old Cuban with zero alcohol plzzzz 💔💔💔
You are welcome! Glad you like this episode. Cheers!
I understand non-alcoholic "spirits", but I don't get non-alcoholic bitters. The amount used is so small that there is no need to remove the alcohol. I don't see people looking for non-alcoholic vanilla extract.
Thank you for your input. Did you watch the whole episode? I am asking because the answer to your question is explained there.
