Difford’s Margarita Bitters

We appreciate Bob’s persistence to nail the right balance of lavender and other botanicals to lift and add complexity to a margarita.

“It struck me that some classic cocktails, particularly the daiquiri and margarita lack the extra complexity that bitters might add."

“Our very own Margarita Bitters made by our mate Bob. This elixir is made with lavender and other (top secret) aromatic botanicals. Use 4 drops to lift a margarita, add complexity and extenuate agave character.”

From a culinary perspective…

Margarita on-the-rocks (Difford’s recipe)


“This is how we prefer our margaritas to be served. Tangy citrus and tequila with a hint of balancing sweetness and a faint salty undertone. We also prefer the subtlety of a half a pinch of salt in the drink to a salt laden glass rim.” ~ Simon Difford
