I've made several syrups so far. Rich simple, demerara, grenadine, honey, cinnamon, apricot, and cranberry. While I was one of those people that thought the rich simple was shelf stable, I do keep mine in the refrigerator to help prolong the life. Great video as always! Cheers!

Great video! You should do a Tiki specific syrup episode; include the Orgest and grenadine again, Falernum, Ginger syrup, Demerara Syrup, etc. BTW, I really love the bottle you keep the gum syrup in, where did you get that?

There will be more syrups videos. I will divide them differently and you will understand why when I make them but they will eventually be all available. That bottle you talk about is from Studio 50, a Canadian based designer. Cheers

Hey, always thanks for the great video. Watching the contents you make every now and then gives me very much motivation in the cocktails.❤ But I have a question. In the sous vide version you added only 8g of arabic gum, but in this version you added 22.5g of arabic gums. Although in the other video the syrup was 150/75 syrup and this time it's 180/90, why is the portion of the arabic gum so different?
@TrufflesOnTheRocks

Hi John! So glad to hear this. The Gum syrup from the older video with the sous-vide technique was from the Death & Co book. It works and I love it but now I use the ratios I shared in this video. You can use that recipe or the other one with the Sous-vide method and it will work but if you want to make it the way I make it now, follow the specs from this video, and make it in the sous-vide the way I did in the other vid. Hope this helps. Cheers!
Hi, great video! Is the fridge life of the grenadine also 2-3 weeks, or shorter because it's not heated?

What gum Arabic powder do you buy?
great guides! One question (and it maybe a stupid one!) I have is about making these is what is the ballpark yield in volume? I understand the importance by making it by weight, but I'd still want a sense of how much I'm going to be making. Say my bottle is 500ml - what portion of each ingredient is going get me about that amount?
@TrufflesOnTheRocks
Жыл бұрын
Well just weight your ingredients in a graduated vessel and stop at 250ml of the ingredient you need the most in the recipe. I think that way you should be fine
What's the shelf life of the gomme syrup?
What do you do when pomegranates are not in season? What alternatives do you recommend?

If you can find unpasteurzied 100% unsweetened juice that would do. Pasteurized unsweetened in last resort
What the shelf life of granadine syrup?
For Gum Syrup - my gum Arabic keeps precipitating at the bottom of my bottle (after hydration and mixing). Does boiling the mixture help dissolve the gum arabic? Does your gum syrup stay perfectly mixed? The syrup still tastes great, just looks like a lot of the white gum arabic is left out.
@TrufflesOnTheRocks

Maybe it was not completely hydrated so it's having a hard time to get dissolved. You can try a couple of seconds in the microwave and see what happens. It should help
When shopping for bitter almond extract, is that the same thing as pure almond extract, or is bitter a specific type of almond extract?
@GamingGardevoir
4 ай бұрын
Bitter Almond extract is a specific type, the pure almond extract that you get at the store is Sweet Almond. Sweet Almond is the type that you eat, Bitter Almonds would be disgusting to eat and potentially poisonous if not processed correctly (shouldn’t be a risk for the extract, especially with how little of it you would use in any recipe that calls for it)

It’s not the flavor the problem but the fact bacterias and mold can built in the syrup over time. Just be careful not to poison yourself. Even if it tastes good still, it may not be a great idea to have orgeat that sat in the fridge for 3 years.

Something I’ve started doing is adding 1 teaspoon of cornstarch for every cup of sugar. It really thickens it without adding more sugar.

You have to weigh every ingredient. Who says the metric system is more efficient? Using imperial I could make this without a scale.
