Description

Napiers Best British Bitters is a traditional herbal digestif.
It has many uses, but most notably:

  • Aiding digestion - After overindulgence in alcohol, rich or spicy food, shellfish and other minor digestive challenges.
  • Stimulating appetite - Taken as an aperitif before a meal. Bitters act as a stimulate to improve appetite, assisting in the production of saliva and bile to aid digestion. This product is particularly helpful for those who have lost their appetite, such as the elderly or convalescent.
Suggested Use

As a digestif:
Take a teaspoonful (5 ml) in a some water, juice or other fluid before indulgence in alcohol and also again on the 'morning after', repeating at half hourly intervals for the next hour if desired. Take several spaced throughout the day to help you get back to normal.

As an aperitif:
Take a teaspoonful (5 ml) in a small amount of water (the more bitter the better) half an hour before a meal to perk up the appetite. Do not exceed the stated dose. If you wish to avoid alcohol, add a little hot water from the kettle to a cup with a teaspoonful of Best British Bitters and wait for five minutes. The hot water will evaporate off some of the alcohol.
