Hello my alcohol faithfuls, today we are still preaching the gospel of alcohol ever more fevrently. Today we have another Bitters article. We can never have enough articles describing this beauty that is alcohol. Welcome to our third installment in the bitters series. Action Bitters is the name.
There was an article about this particular brand of bitters in Linda Ikeji's Blog March last year when they got a new bottle. Experience same action and a new feel with the new look blah blah blah. It is produced in Nigeria by Intercontinental Distillers Limited. The ingredients are said to be natural extracts of true African roots, and on seeing that i started wondering if there is a thing such as "untrue" African roots. I mean really? But let's leave that at that. Most bitters drinks consist of aromatic herbs, barks, roots, and or fruit for their flavour and medicinal purposes.
Did you know bitters could be added to a cocktail? Since it is bitter on its own adding it to cocktail won't make it bitter but better. But from what i have gathered most people like their bitters in its virgin form no mixtures.
Action bitters comes in a 5ml sachet, a 75cl, 37.5cl, 180ml, and also a 100ml bottle. So it totally depends on the size you want and how much you're willing to take. or it could depend on the impression you want to leave, if you know what i mean. Action bitters is  24% alcohol  which is fair if you ask me. Just like any other bitters drink it seems to have its customer base whom if you ask will say it is preferable to any other bitters product. I personally don't like calling favourites on anything and i think that helps me to have a somewhat fair judgement.

So i think you would just have to have a bottle of each at different times and come to this conclusion on your own. Action bitters is also, well bitter and has this soothing after effect which caused goosebumps for me the first time i had it. Was meaning to ask the producers if that's a normal reaction. Leave that for later but for right now i would just suggest you don't take herbal bitters as a means of unwinding, after all it is medicinal and is not just some acoholic drink that you take whenever you want to feel some sorta buzz. That is my personal opinion but that never stopped anyone did it? Have a drink of Action Bitters and see your performance rate soar. Don't forget to have a good time. Happy Holidays!
