CANYON RANCH COCKTAIL
The resort in
Massachusetts has been
serving this counterfeit cocktail before dinner since the day it opened
in December 1979.
This 'cocktail' has a
decided advantage over most non-alcoholic drinks in that it is not sweet,
the calories are negligible, and it is low in sodium. You can serve this
pretty pink drink in a stemmed wineglass, a highball glass, or a beer
mug. Most bars and cocktail lounges have all the ingredients so you can
order it when dining out as well as preparing it at home. When combining
sparkling water and Angostura bitters, always pour the water in the glass
and then add the bitters to it. If you put the bitters in first, then add
the sparkling water, it will foam up so vigorously that it will overflow
the glass.
sparkling water angostura bitters fresh
lime or lemon juice, optional
1. Fill the glass with
sparkling water.
2. Add a couple of dashes of the bitters, or
enough to make the drink a pretty pink color.
3. Add lime or lemon
juice to taste, if desired.
Did You Know?
The story of how Angostura aromatic
bitters were originally developed by the young and dashing Dr. J. G. B.
Siegert reads like a romance novel. Dr. Siegert was a German army surgeon
who had achieved distinction in the Napoleonic Wars. In 1820, he joined
the great General Simón Bolívar in the fight for South American
independence. Seeking to develop a cure for the stomach disorders that
were a constant problem among the troops, he experimented tirelessly with
herbs and spices from all over the world. After four years of research,
he perfected the formula for Angostura aromatic bitters, named for the
city in which he lived. His formula quickly became famous throughout the
world as an aid to digestion, a pick-me-up, and an essential ingredient
in many mixed drinks.
