Created with a master distiller in Downtown LA, OPTIMIST Botanicals ‘spirits’ are artfully distilled and elegantly blended. The complex flavors are inspired by the diverse cultures and landscapes of this city. Designed to be mixed, they happen not to contain alcohol, so you can keep a clear head and still drink in good taste.
TNB's Recs:
- TTheodoreVerified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars35 seconds agoShe's Punchy!
Optimist on its own is intense -- Bright is herbal & dry, with a unique kind of spiced heat from cinnamon leaf and fennel. There's also a playful salinity that lends itself well to a summery drink. I highly recommend giving this recipe a try if you're on the fence.
2 oz OPTIMIST Bright
1 small plum
1 piece of lemon zest
2 sprigs of oregano
Fever Tree Indian Tonic
Add all ingredients except the tonic to a shaking tin and muddle briefly. Add ice and shake short to chill. Strain into a highball with ice and top with the tonic water. Garnish with a gently bruised sprig of oregano!

The Bright had a hint of turpentine. Its not drinkable of mixed. I don't know any mixer that would kill the foul taste of this stuff.

This was just *not good*. Both the smell and the taste were giving off chemically "Don't consume me" vibes.
