With deep roots in the restaurant and bar industry...
Husband and wife team Joe and MariElena Raya sought out to simplify the process of making craft cocktails at home.
Inspired by what goes into making classic cocktails, the culinary-trained duo began reviving the tainted name of bottled cocktail mixers in 2013. While bitterness is often a missing component of other overly sweet or sour pre-made mixers on the market, Bittermilk uniquely highlights the bittering agents used in each mixer. More than just bitters, each Bittermilk product is compounded using a bittering agent, along with sweet and acidic components to achieve a balanced cocktail.
Handcrafted in Charleston, South Carolina, each Bittermilk cocktail mixer is made in house using real ingredients processed with unique culinary techniques like barrel-aging, charring, and smoking to create complex flavor profiles. Our small team ensures the best quality cocktail mixer, from the sourcing of ingredients to bottling.
The labor is in the bottle. Just add booze.
