Different Types of Flavoring Syrups

Flavoring syrups are the most popular choice for adding taste to beverages and culinary dishes. Available in a multitude of flavors, they allow you to craft a memorable menu for your customers. The following are some ways to use flavoring syrup:

Hot Beverages: In coffee, tea, and hot chocolate to improve your restaurant's coffee service or spice up your cafe menu.

Cold Beverages: In lemonades, smoothies, and house-made sodas, like Italian sodas and Shirley Temples. 

Cocktails: In signature cocktails and mocktails on bar and restaurant drink menus. 

Culinary: In recipes from signature entrees to irresistible glazes to baked goods, such as cakes, cookies, and brownies.

Ready-to-use concentrates are a more potent form of flavoring compared to traditional syrups. They are typically used in smaller quantities to achieve a strong and bold flavor profile. Concentrated syrups can be combined with water or milk for drink preparation or incorporated into your favorite recipes to add bold flavor. Choose from our wide selection of concentrates including:

Coffee and Tea Flavors: Whether you're looking to create a classic vanilla latte or a refreshing iced tea, coffee and tea-flavored concentrates offer a convenient way to infuse rich, aromatic flavors.

Savory Flavors: From smoky bacon to tangy barbecue, savory concentrates are perfect for adding depth and complexity to sauces, marinades, and dressings.

Fruit Flavors: Add a burst of fruity flavor to cocktails, lemonades, and desserts. From tropical fruits like mango and pineapple to classic flavors like strawberry and raspberry, fruit concentrates allow you to create vibrant and refreshing treats.

Flavoring sauces are thicker than traditional syrups and are commonly used to drizzle over desserts like ice cream, cakes, and pastries. These syrups add a decadent touch to sweet treats and can also be used to garnish drinks for a visually appealing presentation.

Beverages: Swirl atop whipped cream for hot chocolate, drizzle into cups for iced coffees, or blend into sweet frappes.

Frozen Treats: Add the perfect finishing touch to ice cream, sundaes, gelato, frozen yogurt, or milkshakes. 

Desserts: Boost the visual appeal and flavor of cheesecakes, pastries, cakes, pies, or mousse. 

Sweetener syrups are specifically designed to add sweetness to beverages without adding extra flavor. These syrups are ideal for customers who prefer their drinks to be sweetened without altering the original taste. Here are the most popular types of sweetener syrups:

Simple Syrup: Great for cocktails, iced coffees, cappuccinos, lemonades, and sweetened iced teas.

Sugar-Free Sweetener Syrup: Perfect for sweetening drinks without the health concerns of sugar. One pump equals one sweetener packet.

Maple Flavored Syrup: Adds a rich, maple flavor and dark color to recipes while sweetening.

Agave Syrup: Often used as a honey or sugar substitute, it is slightly sweeter than honey and cane sugar, but it has a mild, clean taste and quick-dissolving properties that mix well with coffees, teas, and lemonades.
