I love experimenting with fruit based syrups - I've made so many in the last few weeks.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You got me started years ago making chocolate syrup and phosphates.

Please do a Japanese melon soda, would love to just make my own! It's impossible to find.

Thank you!

Thank you for your sharing.

This is a great recipe. I have currently made the following variations, same recipe, different fruit. Cherry, Blueberry, Strawberry, Mango, Passion Fruit, Dragon Fruit, & Blackcurrant. Pasteurized and also added Potassium Sorbate, these have been fridge stable for at least a month. I built a large vacuum filter using a bucket with tight fitting lid, a large sieve siliconed into a hole cut into the lid and a vacuum pump. I used a large nut bag in the sieve. I got a better yield. I'm now going to try and see if I get a better yield making a puree and using Pectinex, Chitosan and Kiesolsel, a Spinzall to centrifuge the juice.

Can you do videos on making the fruit syrups to be shelf stable or recipe for them to where they won't go bad like how simple syrup is

Italian Lemonades video would be pretty interesting!

Coming soon, the Italian Lemonade recipes come from an old soda fountain book and these syrups, though pretty standard for the time, were specifically called for in the Italian Lemonades.

Is it possible to add lemon juice instead of citric acid? Also, is it actually too much of a problem if it does ferment a little? I know bottles will pop, but a combucha jar won't.

@Artofdrink

You can add lemon juice if you like, you will need a fair amount of it as 1 oz (30 ml) of lemon juice has about 1.4 grams of citric acid. Adding that amount of juice will give the strawberry syrup a lemon flavour, which is fine if you like that. And 'fermentation will effect flavour and even kombucha jars can explode if the pressure gets too high. Just use common sense, or use the syrup up quicker.

Great video and thank you for sharing. Can i make a watermelon syrap with the same process?

Thanks, and probably, though watermelon has a light flavour, so your results may vary.

So when you add the second measure of sugar, does that bring it to a simple syrup like consistency?

Yes

One could use Cherry-Oil make an Essence and then a Syrup, right ? :o)

Would it release too much cyanide to run the whole cherries through the vitamix on low? It would probably not pulverize the pits but it might knock some chunks off of some of them.

I wouldn't recommend it, here is an article I wrote on the topic years ago: www.artofdrink.com/science/cyanide-in-apricot-cherries-pits Plus, blending the fruit is unnecessary and creates a pulpy mess that is difficult to filter and really doesn't increase the flavour profile.

Can you use the sodium benzoate solution we made in your other video instead of straight potassium sorbate?

I always wonder. Wouldn't be better to juice the fruit or to buy 100% juice if available and add sugar? I know it's much more expensive way. But is that the only reason we don't see this method?

@Artofdrink

Prepackaged juice is not the best. It is often diluted, pasteurized and made with subpar fruits. Fresh or fresh frozen is always best.

@@Artofdrink I am a bit confused about this suggestion. Are you saying to just replace the water in the diet simple with the liquid from this syrup? In that case, what would you suggest for the initial cup (240g) of sugar for the maceration? take that out of the 325g of allulose from the diet syrup or use an additional cup of allulose?

Can you use the percolator method for cherries?

@Artofdrink

Жыл бұрын

On dry cherries, probably. But the percolator method is usually meant for dried substance that are hard to extract flavours from, like cinnamon or cloves, not fresh products that you can juice.

Sounds like fun! Do you ever make cherry bounce?
