How to make Sprite - lemon lime soda from scratch

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Let’s make some sprite! This lemon-lime soda couldn’t be any easier, and the result tasted very very close to the stuff you can buy off the shelves, although maybe a little fresher. It doesn’t need to require any complicated ingredients, just some time to make what is known as an oleo sacrum which is the key to getting a drink that tastes less like lemonade, and more like, well Sprite.
Sprite is flavored from a mixture of lemon and lime. I always had figured it could be made by just mixing the juice of lemon and lime with soda water and sugar, but the resulting drink would be way too sour, and not have that overarching deeper citrus flavor. So today we are going to use a method to extract the oils from the rinds of the citrus, resulting in a more mellow, deeper citrus flavor.

    Just a thought you could add the peels sugar and water into a vacuum sealed bad and sous vide cook at 60° Celsius for 2 hours to speed up the process then strain through a cheesecloth to speed up the process as well as using clerified juice in the end product. Love this recipe.

    I use the oleo method when I sell fresh squeezed lemonade. Granted, my lemons and sugar don't sit in the cup that long, after 10 or 15 minutes, the sugar does excrete liquid and oil from the smashed lemons. This results in a MORE flavorful lemonade and I don't have to shake the cups that much to dissolve the sugar.

    I came to this video because I was looking at the ingredients in a Sprite can a couple days ago and wondering that it surprisingly didn't look too bad, besides the excess sugar, and that you could probably make a healthier version of it at home without much problems. Now that explains it, most of the lime taste comes from a concentrate of the only toxic part of the fruit, the peel. Which is there to protect it from smaller prey, not to be eaten.
