Bittered Sling is Canada's premier award-winning line of cocktail bitters & cooking extracts. Available across Canada, USA, UK, Netherlands and more.

Bittered Sling Bitters celebrates the unique life and business partnership of celebrated chef Jonathan Chovancek and award-winning mixologist/sommelier Lauren Mote, who together have contributed more than 30 years of professional experience, knowledge and innovation to the Canadian food and beverage industry. Mote has been making bitters since 2008—over half her career. The sweetest partnership would launch on February 12, 2012—where Mote and Chovancek unveiled their Bittered Sling line up to the world —a retail line of high-quality, cocktail bitters and culinary extracts using exceptional ingredients providing the palate, plate and potion with a powerful and exciting fusion of flavours. Since that day —Bittered Sling quickly built a reputation in the international cocktail and culinary community as a premium, high quality cocktail bitters, celebrating stories of travel and terroir, utilizing the finest quality ingredients, stories of heritage and craftsmanship from domestic and international purveyors, with an expertise in blending botanicals and flavours right here in British Columbia, Canada. Bittered Sling continues to inspire creativity within the global drinks community, providing a sustainable, diverse and delicious product for excited cocktail enthusiasts, backed by a quality stamp of approval—Canada Brand. The world needs more Canada...

Originally marketed as a medicinal tonic, bitters are a concentration of select natural herbs, fruits and spices now used primarily as a flavouring agent for cocktail and culinary creations ranging from savoury to sweet. A common and indispensable tool of any bartender, bitters have increased in popularity thanks to the recent renaissance of classic cocktails.

Since its inception, Bittered Sling has garnered local and international acclaim with aromatic labels such as Cascade Celery, Malagasy Chocolate and Kensington Dry Bitters —all of which were bestowed with gold medals at the Beverage Testing Institute’s 2014 International Review of Spirits.
