About Chicago Ingredients

Brandy: A distilled spirit made from grapes and other fruits. It has a sweet, mellow aroma and a mild, elegant taste.

Orange Curacao: An orange-colored curacao made from a base of spirits and brandy, flavored with orange peel, and aged in oak barrels. The aging process gives it a mellow taste.

Aromatic bitters: Bitter liqueur made primarily from the bark of the angostura (tangerine tree). When we simply call it Angostura bitters, we are referring to it. Just a few drops can add depth to the flavor.

Sparkling wine: A sparkling wine that contains a large amount of carbon dioxide gas. If it is made in the Champagne region of France and meets strict regulations, it is called Champagne.

Sugar: Frosted sugar is easily dissolved. Apart from being used as a mixing ingredient, it can be rimmed with sugar or decorated with a dusting of powdered sugar.
