Normally 4:1 #brandy and #cherryliqueur but this time more like 2:1 + a couple dashes of one of my favorite bitters- @thefortunetellerbar’s #lemonhoppedbitters

Lithium cocktail?

Here’s a recipe from Harry Craddock’s book that calls for Lithia Water. I’d never heard of this before, so I looked it up to see what it is, and I found that it’s a mineral water and “a source of lithium”, and it’s like $18 for 4oz? (Lithia Water, 4 fl. oz. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00944QYUI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_WwxLAb7SA9RHQ)

Has anyone ever had lithia water before? Is lithium healthy for the average person to consume? I’ve always thought lithium was “bad”, but the extent of my knowledge of it is just a nirvana song. What’s it taste like?

Thanks
