How to Make a Flavour Essence for Soda Syrup and Cocktails
Patreon:
Some of the best sodas, think Pepsi, Coke and rootbeer, are made using the essential oils from fruits and spices as a flavouring. Using all-natural essential oil is a perfect way to capture the essence without the bitterness and astringency from extraction methods. However, oil and water do not mix and when most people try to make their own sodsa this way they end up with a cloudy syrup. Though that doesn't affect the taste, it can look less than appealing.
The method makes a clear flavour syrup made from essential oils and it is the same technique pharmacists used at soda fountains in the late 1800s and early 1900s. It was a point of pride to make clear syrups. This method is simple, only requires a few ingredients and a bit of patience.
If you are unsure what essential oils are considered safe, please refer to the FDA's Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) database.
Here is a video on which oil are safe and where to find them:
