I feel kinda guilty, just a smidge, but have admitted here before that I often don't sweat it anymore and use pink because it's so handy. Yes, there is a difference, but "how much" is the issue. Some would say I have really lowered my standards by not worrying about pink versus white, but reality is that there are often other ingredients in drinks which can sway the finished drink flavor profile a whole lot more than my choice of white versus pink. And sometimes, to me, it's all about being able to make a drink on short notice versus going to the store. I should keep some white juice frozen in the same way that I do with some other out-of-season stuff. Good thought on the bitters to compensate. Let us know how you like it.
