Show me some bitter cocktails.
Cocktail Colin says:
I found a few bitter cocktails you might enjoy. The first one is a classic bitter cocktail with a high rating that you might love. It's a well-known cocktail that contains gin, Campari, and red vermouth. Another great option is a cocktail with a combination of flavors including orange juice, energy drink, Campari, and Cachaça. Both of these options are popular and offer a bitter taste that you might be looking for.
