Strongwater Old Fashioned Mix - Makes 32 Cocktails - Handcrafted Old Fashioned Syrup with Bitters, Orange, Cherry, Organic Demerara Sugar - Craft Cocktail Mixer, Just Mix with Bourbon,Whiskey - 1 Pack

Very authentic taste

I bought this as a gift for my husband, and it has been a huge hit. He recently had some of the best Old Fashioneds on a cruise, and this mix really brings him back to that experience. This is not just bitters, it is a full Old Fashioned mix, so nothing else is needed except whiskey, bourbon, or rye. It is incredibly easy to use since it only takes two ingredients to make a great drink. The flavor is rich, smooth, and well balanced, and it instantly elevates the cocktail. We did add some high quality cocktail cherries, which made it even better. He has tried several different mixes before, and this is by far the best one he has used so far. Using it with nice glasses and a round ice cube makes it feel like a cocktail bar at home. This turned out to be a very well thought out gift that he truly enjoys.

It only took me 58 years, but I finally heard of an Old Fashioned drink and decided to give it a try, as I really like bourbon. Over a few weeks I bought several different Old Fashioned mixes from the grocery store, but had to really tweak them to get them to taste good. So I started looking around for a really good mixer. If I want a drink I don't like to have to get out a bunch of different ingredients, I just want to get to it. I've tried about 7 different Old Fashioned mixes and I'd have to honestly say that the Strongwater is my favorite! Expensive in my opinion, but hands down the best one. It's odd to me that this mix is more than twice the price per oz than a good quality bourbon, but I guess that's just how it goes. A $75 1.75lt (59oz) bottle of bourbon (which I think would be considered pricey by most) is approximately $1.27/oz. Strongwater Old Fashioned mix is $2.99/oz. What gives please? And I love the taste of bourbon, but adding 1/4oz of mix to 2oz of bourbon is very strong in my opinion. A half oz to 2oz tastes really good. So IMHO you have to use twice the amount per drink. I like to just put 4oz of bourbon to 1oz of this mix and it's fantastic. I'm not really a fan of the orange peal, but a good cocktail cherry out of the bottom of the glass at the end is great! Price aside it's still the best tasting mixer where you don't have to spend a lot of time to make the drink it or tweak it to get a great flavor. Ok, now I'm really thirsty for one but I'm out of Strongwater. #@$&!

Mix is excellent and convenient. Makes a very good old fashioned. I wish the bottle poured better…

Great cocktail mixed for making Old Fashioned at home. Maybe a little sweet but just use less mix.
