I love bitter herbal drinks, and most of them seem to be strongly alcoholic, such as Unicum Zwack. (Darn.) These are great beverages, but sometimes it's nice to mix things up a bit, and play with the flavors.

Ran across one recently that's not alcoholic though: Terma Serrano. There's an empanada place just a couple miles from our house, and they sell it there, $4 for a 1.25L bottle. One of my colleagues is from Cordoba, Argentina, where this is made, and he says it's insanely popular there. I can believe it. 1:1 with sparkling water, and it's *wonderful*. Straight, it's a bit sweet, but still definitely drinkable.

This would make a killer mixer, jason0x21....

Whoa! I have not known many people who know what Unicum Zwack is, and you're the only one I can think of who *likes* it. I like herbal booze, but that one is...a bit much. It's more-or-less the same color as Jagermeister, so I thought it would taste similar. Silly me.

He's not the only one. I've visited the distillery. I know EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT IT now.

Also I have a bottle, and I'm trying to figure out how to get more, since the stuff they have over here is Unicum Next, which isn't as good (but it is sweeter, so you might like it. I have some of that, too).

Do! Do! It's good to find fellow Unicummers!





Okay, that really didn't sound like it did in my head.

So, are you going to bring some down? And what about the other Termas: Patagonico, Cuyano, Limon and Pomelo?

Haven't seen the others on sale, will keep an eye out. And yeah, next time we're down, I'll bring you a bottle or four. :)
