surrup. 101

  • It’s simply (heh!) 2 parts sugar for 1 part water. Most homemade recipes and simple syrup products found in stores are 1:1.

  • Glad you asked! We feel strongly that 2:1 syrup is superior to 1:1 for a few reasons:

    • Higher sugar concentration = much longer shelf life
    • You’ll get a better mouthfeel in your cocktails and mocktails
    • 2:1 curtails unwanted drink dilution with more sweetness
    • Bigger bang for your buck. You’ll use less surrup. in each drink than traditional simple syrups to get your desired sweetness
  • Surprisingly, no because of…science. Liquid sweetness is measured on something called the brix scale.

    A 2:1 ratio has a brix of 66% meaning it’s about 33% sweeter than a traditional 1:1 mixture. So, it’s actually only 1.5x as sweet and not 2x as you might think. Fascinating stuff!

  • If you add ½ oz of traditional 1:1 simple syrup to a drink, try adding just ⅓ oz of surrup. There will be no discernible difference in taste, but you will notice a smoother, velvety mouthfeel. Math is not mathing? Refer to the table below.

If following a recipe, you will need less surrup. per drink than with traditional simple syrups. Sweetness is personal, so you may find yourself making adjustments as you go.

Tip: Less
is more!

ingredients

  • Citric acid is one of the most common food additives in the world. We use it as a preservative so that you can enjoy your bottle for longer. The citric acid in surrup. is plant-based and completely free of additives and dyes.

  • Unopened surrups. are made to be shelf stable for up to 12 months. Once opened, you and the bottle should chiiillllll because surrups. will last for months when kept in the fridge.

    Keep an eye on the best by date for flavor deterioration and if there’s something funky going on in the bottle, it’s time to let it go.

  • We're embarassed. We use only fresh, whole ingredients to flavor our surrups. Although we strain all the solids out, sometimes lil' bits get left behind.
