Description:
Lemon Lime & Bitters is an Australian alcohol-free bar staple: soda, lime, and a few dashes of Angostura create a simple but recognizable long drink. Difford’s Guide notes that the drink is very popular in its homeland, Australia. The recipe uses lemonade in the Australian and British sense: a clear lemon or lemon-lime soda, not still homemade lemonade. Although bitters are used, their share of the total drink is tiny; Difford’s Guide classifies the finished serve as alcohol-free under its maximum 0.5% alcohol threshold.
