Cardamom bitters

0.5 g1 dash

Cocktail bitters are dosed by dash; one dash about 0.5 g.

Nothing replaces bitters' bitter, concentrated cocktail flavouring exactly.

• 
  Cardamom-infused vodka

  Use 3–4 times the volume; it carries cardamom but is much less bitter and adds more alcohol, so taste carefully.

• 
  Cardamom-infused bourbon

  Use 3–4 times the volume; adds oak and sweetness as well as cardamom, so adjust sugar.

• 
  Ground cardamom

  Use a tiny pinch, about 0.1 g per 5 ml of bitters needed, steeped briefly and strained; gives aroma but no bitter backbone.
