From the Bartender

The Trinidad Sour, created by Giuseppe González around 2008 at Clover Club in Brooklyn, is famous for using a full 1.5oz of Angostura bitters as the base spirit - more bitters than most bars use in a week. The high sugar content of orgeat is essential to balance the bitters' intensity and make the drink approachable.
