Angostura Sour

From the title, one would probably guess that I am referring to Angostura Rum, not Bitters. But it is indeed Angostura Bitters.

It is a "rogue cocktail" from the guys at Cure in New Orleans.

Angostura Sour

1.5 oz Angostura bitters

.75 oz Lime juice

1 oz Simple syrup

Egg white

Dry shake the egg white and lemon juice. Add ice, the shake hard. Strain into a coupe.

Sound gut wrenching? I thought so too. But this sucker is delicious. Seriously. I wouldn't drink more than one at a sitting. It is very flavorful, and cocktails very little alcohol.

I think it helps me have a better understanding of Angostura. I will have to explore cocktails using more than a few drops or dashes.
