Cocktails with Coconut syrup
Coconut syrup is a sweetener made from coconut and sugar, thickened into a pourable syrup.
Taste profile
Silky and viscous on the palate, coating the tongue before a sweet, nutty coconut note carries through the finish.
How it's used
Bartenders pour it in small measures to sweeten and flavour a build at once, shaking it in so it disperses through the drink; the dose is kept modest because it adds both sugar and body.
Substitutes for Coconut syrup
Coconut cream loosened with sugar, or another nut-based sweetening syrup of similar weight.
Description
This syrup blends coconut extract or coconut cream with dissolved sugar, cooking the two into a smooth, concentrated liquid. Depending on the formula it ranges from clear to milky white.
Storage
Refrigerate after opening, especially cream-based versions, and use within a few weeks.
