Peychaud's aromatic bitters were created by Antoine Amdee Peychaud in 1795 in New Orleans. A pharmacist by trade, he kept his own shop at No. 123 Royal Street. There he created the 'American aromatic bitter cordial', which he sold as a medicinal tonic. Antoine also served his bitters with brandy and other spirits. Many bars in New Orleans began using it, including the Sazerac Coffee House, which is rumored to have created the Sazerac cocktail by adding Peychaud's aromatic bitter.
Agave has been the gift of the gods for centuries according to the Aztecs. We are talking about one of the healthiest natural sweeteners. It is produced in western Mexico from the juice of blue agave (Agave Tequiliana). It has a low glycemic index, a characteristic that makes it ideal for those who want to avoid sugar and add sweetness to their drinks. As a cocktail ingredient it is a useful helper for barterers as a small amount achieves the desired sweetness, dissolves easily and gives body to cocktails.
