  I found this recipe in an interesting video here 12 g Anise Seed12 g Fennel Seed12 g Chamomile Flower6 g Gentian Root 6 g Bitter Orange Peel3 g Cinnamon3 g Cardamom3 g Ginger (powdered)3 g Cloves36 g Sugar1000 ml 50% ABV Alcohol10 ml Caramel ColouringGrind herbs and macerate for 14 days, or use a percolator for 48 hours.The original Abbott’s Bitters were made from corn high wines and barrel aged, so the alcohol I used was some UJSSM that had been in a badmo for 2 years.I just started the maceration, so will check back in 14 days with the results.

  I’ve made this recipe several times over the last couple of years and been very pleased with it.
