Description

Use and combinations

Acacia syrup is a drink with a sweet but delicate taste and a flowery scent, so it lends itself well to cold preparations because it does not cover the other flavors. Being concentrated it must be diluted to be appreciated. Dissolved in water (100 ml of product for 1 liter) you get a refreshing drink, slush or popsicle. It can also be used in small quantities as a sweetener instead of sugar, for the preparation of cakes, homemade ice cream, hot drinks or light cocktails, releasing in addition to the sweet note typical of syrups an intense aroma of the freshly picked flower.
