We feel a little like we're entering Fantasy Island whenever we add a dash of Forbidden Bitters into our drinks. Spicy, exotic, and mysterious, this tincture by Los Angeles-based Miracle Mile Bitters Co. is based on traditional herbal aromatic bitters, and is most akin to Angostura bitters. Bold, flavorful, and earthy, it combines zedoary, angelica root, galangal, vanilla, clove, cinnamon, and cardamom. It's a great addition for aged spirits that we'd like to think Ricardo Montalban would've approved.
