Fee Brothers 李子苦精

I’ve been adding it to my evening gin and tonics, and the subtle stone fruit sweetness balances the botanicals perfectly. The plum flavor is distinct but not overpowering, and one bottle has lasted me over a dozen cocktails.

A few drops of this in a plain seltzer gave it a subtle, sweet-tart depth that made me do a double take — the plum note really comes through without any syrupy heaviness. The bottle is small but a little goes a long way, so I can see it lasting me months.

A couple dashes in my club soda turned it into something with real depth, and the plum note comes through clean without any syrupy sweetness. It’s my new go-to for adding a subtle stone fruit layer to cocktails without changing their body.
