Lemon lime bitters

This quintessential Aussie drink of lime, lemon and bitters is just the thirst-buster you need on a hot summer's day. It's a doddle to make with only three ingredients; lemonade, lime juice and a few drops of bitters. Reportedly, over a 100 million of these are served in Australia each year. That's one iconic drink!

Instructions

  1. Add your preferred amount of ice to the glass.
  2. Add the lemonade and lime juice. Give it a quick stir.
  3. Add a few dashes of bitters to taste.
  4. Give it a brief stir but be cautious not to overdo it. The goal is to maintain that ombre effect, with most of the orange settling at the top.
  5. Decorate the glass with a straw and a slice of lime, or lime peel twisty. Enjoy!
