Are you under 18 or 21 and you wanna be seen drinkin a cool bar made drink? Well heres the solution. Im going to tell you the perfect recipe on how to make a Lemon Lime Bitters.
Ps: Sorry for the big images this is my first guide and idk how to crop em...

Ingrediants:
1 bottle of Aromic Bitters (get your parents to buy this from a bottle shop, it contains as much alcahol as vanilla essence food flavouring/food coulouring) (So basicly none!)

1 Bottle of Lime Cordial

1 bottle of Soda Water/Lemonade (If using soda water its effectivly called a SODA lime and bitters, i feel lemonade makes the drink too sweet :sick: )


Method:
Circle the bitters around the outside of the inside of the glass so it comes out because the hole it comes out through is very small *Warning this stains benchtops and clothes if spilt wash imediatly*
The more you put the more bitter it tastes, you make like to experiment.

Dont put any in after you put in the soda water because it becomes unbalanced.

Then pour in a 1/8th of lime cordial, about a quater of a quater of the glass your making the drink in.


Finally, Fill up with soda water/lemonade, The more dark pink/browner it is, the more bitter it is!. It should end up being a Tinted pink.


Optional: Cut a lemon and a lime in half and slice 1 circles off each (lol)
Cut the circles in half, put 1 half wedge in the drink, and the other fruit wedges on the glass. Todah, a mini cocktail!:nuts:


Now Drink it and show it off like the non alcoholic cocktail it is, enjoy!

:nuts: :noworry: ^_^ :sick: :laugh: :nuts: >_< >_<

 

Haha, cool guide.

Fortunately I'm over the age of 18.

Nonetheless, good job.

 

Well, if you're reposting the guide, it should be a good idea to look it over. You have some grammar/spelling mistakes here and there, you might want to fix those. Also, the images are pretty big, it might be to your benefit if you crop them so the ingredient is only showing. I think you should work on your layout more, it's not that well-constructed as for now. By the way, you should try making your steps pop out more. Oh, and I think adding an ingredient list in the beginning would be to the users benefit, you can know what materials you need before you need to start the guide. Last but not least, I don't think you should say "How to make the perfect Lemon Lime Bitters," because everyone's taste is different. I applaud your attempt at this guide, and I hope you continue to make guides! PM me if you need anymore help.

 

I disagree with cropping the images, i think people should be able to see what the inside of my house looks like.

Thanks for the feedback!

 

Why? What does that have to do with the guide? If you think we really are interested, I'm sure you can find other means of doing so instead of putting it in a guide that's not related to your house. It would be to our benefit if your cropped it, we would not be looking at such huge images and we can directly look at the ingredients. Also, I'm sure it will make your thread look better.

 

Subscribed to this thread, that's awesome. I'll be trying it out sometime this week.
