Bold Heat and Herbal Balance
Bluestem’s Spicy Cocktail Bitters are a celebration of warmth and depth, blending the gentle heat of cayenne pepper with the aromatic spice of black peppercorn and ginger. Yellow dock adds earthy grounding, while coriander, wild carrot, and thyme round out the blend with a savory herbal finish. The result is a complex, full-bodied bitters that enhances both classic and contemporary drinks with a touch of fiery character.
Crafted in small batches by herbalists using organically grown botanicals, this blend captures the spirit of balance; invigorating yet smooth, spicy yet refined.
Linda (MSN, RN) and Eric started Bluestem Botanicals in 2008 with a mission to connect people to plants for food, for medicine and for a more resilient collective future.
All of their products are hand grown, harvested, and manufactured on their small farm in Pennsylvania.
Their mission and their passion for their herbs comes through in every bottle, tincture, and bag they produce.
Directions for Use
