Cherry Bitters turn Moonshine Cocktail from 'Kombucha Revolution' (Ten Speed Press, June 3, 2014) by Stephen Lee of Kombucha Wonder into a wonder drink. 

Moonshine Cocktail

Jovial King of Urban Moonshine is an expert when it comes to pairing food and drink with bitters, which are made of a variety of herbs, fruits, spices, and roots distilled in a base liquor. She inspired me to add cherry bitters to my Traditional Kombucha Wonder Drink—and what a wonderfully refreshing flavor combination! Try this re‑creation of a classic cocktail and enjoy the digestive benefits of both kombucha and bitters. The dashes of bitters lend an aromatic, well-balanced flavor to the fresh citrus, resulting in a crisp cocktail.

I recommend using Urban Moonshine’s Citrus Bitters. Serves 1

2‑inch peeled fresh ginger, chopped

Ice

1 tablespoon (1/2 ounce) freshly squeezed lime juice (about 1/2 of a lime)

1 tablespoon (1/2 ounce) freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 1/4 of a lemon)

6 tablespoons (3 ounces) plain kombucha (page 19)

6 tablespoons (3 ounces) vodka

5 dashes bitters

Twist of lemon peel, to garnish

Place the ginger in the bottom of a cocktail shaker and press with a muddler or blunt kitchen utensil. Half fill the shaker with ice. Add the lime juice, lemon juice, kombucha, vodka, and bitters. Shake well. Pour the strained liquor into a chilled martini glass and garnish with a twisted peel of lemon.
