The Bittermilk Gingerbread Old Fashioned Mix is a [festive cocktail mixer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomuss-mixers) that will provide mixologists with a way to enhance the classic drink recipe with a festive touch.

The mix is made with sweet sorghum molasses as well as gingerbread spice that work together to create a distinctively festive flavor profile that is perfect for pairing with whiskey or rum. The non-alcoholic recipe of the mixer also means it can be used for crafting [premium virgin cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peppermint-bark-tini) to serve at holiday get-togethers to those who don't drink, who aren't of legal drinking age or who are the designated driver.

The Bittermilk Gingerbread Old Fashioned Mix also features a [no-egg nog recipe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/craig-nog) on the bottle to add a flavorful touch of festiveness to the classic drink.
