[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

What other DIY bitters would you like me to share? You know I'm always there for you ;) Cheers my friends!

[@zeroanima]

How about a celery bitters? all I've tried have waaay different flavor profiles Would like to see your take.

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

I love celery bitters! Good idea

[@zeroanima]

@@TrufflesOnTheRocks my favorite! (besides ango obviously)

[@Jordi___]

[@jz5748]

sichuan peppers?

[@ptnnkv3591]

Next ep diy chocolate bitter pls

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Copy that!

[@bruceharlick3322]

Very nice! Thanks for the recipe and the method for rapid infusion. I'm so used to making bitters the slow way; this will be a nice thing to try

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Me too, I've always used the good old slow infusion method but everytime I was sharing something that way I was getting so many comments like "does it work with the flash infusion to make it faster" So I decided to give it a try and it turned out pretty great. Don't tell anyone but I still prefer the result with long infusion time LOL

[@bruceharlick3322]

@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Also, prior I would end up with SO MUCH bitters! Literally more than I could use or give away in years. This looks way more controlled. Thanks again. Love your channel, by the way.

[@pebbleamongthestones820]

Since the DIY Chartreuse I’ve been hoping for a DIY Benedictine! It’s so hard to find where I live for some reason

[@sefraisik9142]

I would love to try this Mint Julep right now with your amazing homemade Bitters. I'm just a total fan of DIY products. 🖤

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

You know where to find me ;)

[@thiagovongilsa]

Nice recipe thanks a lot! Here in Brazil its a bit difficult to finde mace, do you think it can be replaced by nutmeg? Since it is from de same tree.

[@Joksio]

I love these videos, nothing better than homemade, but pro quality ingredients. Do you think it would be possible to make it with sous vide?

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Thank you! Happy to hear you like these projects :) For a Sous-Vide version, I would rec 2 hours at 75 celcius but I haven't done it so it's just me guessing LOL

[@Joksio]

Thank you, it's nice to have at least some ballpark figures

[@mazer1996]

Amazing! I wish i had the chance to get easily those ingredients 😢, i will make a video about the results of the mint washing technique from your previous video! Thank you for sharing 🫡

[@DirtyHairy01]

Your KZbin content is the best! 👍

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@now4media]

Impressive! Really happy that I subscribed to your channel and thanks for sharing. ⭐

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Thank you! I'm also glad you did ;) Cheers!

[@mauricebrautigam409]

Lately I made a sandalwood tincture and the taste reminded me a lot of peychauds Bitters. The colour was also pretty red. That's maybe an ingredient that can complement your formula

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

That's super interesting. Thanks for sharing, I'll give this a try for sure. Cheers!

[@maghteridon5555]

Did you use the bark or extract/oil?

[@mauricebrautigam409]

I used the bark and 80% alcohol

[@maghteridon5555]

So now we're waiting for an Aromatic (Angostura) style of bitters :D

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

That's a big challenge ;)

[@nijoneo6492]

Love this video! Curiously, is there any way to make non-alcoholic bitters at home?

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

There is. Different process though because you will need something else than alcohol to use as a solvant. Usually Glycerin is the good way to go

[@jaspervangheluwe7531]

FYI, I just made a batch of non-alcohol Peychaud's Bitters, using this exact recipe, only using 300ml water and 30g of honey (I don't have glycerol). Tastes amazing, a little sweeter than the original, but definitely a good substitute to use in your non alcoholic cocktails.

[@dianacruz651]

What if we don’t have the infuser ? Can I just let it sit for a few weeks ?

[@benosmann5404]

I bet that would make a nice gun shop fizz, as well.

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

I sure have to give it a try. I didn't think about this one. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!

[@ReLLaXed]

Loved the recipe! I hope I get to try it soon. Btw, I really like your Watch bracelet, can I ask which watch you’re wearing? Been following since the start, Cheers.

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Thank you! I hope you will enjoy the bitters! Can't go wrong with a Casio Wolrd ;) Cheers!

[@tomhubbard7053]

I do not own a cream whipper, and would like to try this the slow way. My tiki bitters take about a week, do you think that this recipe would take about the same time? Also, is mint essence the same as what we Americans call "mint extract"?

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Hi sir! If you want to do the traditionnal infusion, I would rec to use at least a 50% ABV spirit and keeping the same specs, infuse for 2 weeks then dilute the mixture to reach 40% if you want to bring it back closer to the traditionnal Peychaud. For the essence, I make it myslef using Mint oil and highproof spirit. You can watch my video about homemade liqueurs to learn how I make them But if you want to buy some, I think mint extract would work as long as it's alcohol based. Cheers!

[@Lucky-i7z4c]

How much quantity should be used for making single drink??

[@meketobar]

Tnx🔥

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Cheers!

[@rodrigomiller7181]

A favor to humanity. Thanks

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

HAHA!! Thank you ;)

[@dougforeign]

A gunshop fizz would’ve been a good cocktail for these bitters. Maybe you can substitute the simple for maple syrup. Also, some bitters with sage and green cardamom together would definitely be amazing.

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

Good idea (both) Cheers!
