# Taste
|
||||
|
||||
I'm ignoring carbonation since everyone is going to probably use something
|
||||
different. _However_, I used a Soda Stream set to **2** which gave me a
|
||||
very fine carbonation and a very nice head when poured over ice.
|
||||
|
||||
Taste wise this is going to be very flowery, cinnamon-y, cola.

||||

# Ingredients
|
||||
|
||||
_Makes 4 cups of syrup total_.
|
||||
|
||||
| Amount | Item |
|
||||
|------|----|
|
||||
|1 tsp | Cinnamon |
|
||||
|1 tsp | Nutmeg |
|
||||
|1 tsp | Coriander |
|
||||
|1 tbsp | Brown Sugar |
|
||||
|1/2 tsp | Anise |
|
||||
|1/2 tsp | Citric Acid |
|
||||
| 2 | Oranges worth of **zest** |
|
||||
| 1 | Lemon worth of **zest** |
|
||||
| 2 Cups | Water |
|
||||
| 2 Cups | Sugar |
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
# Process
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Mix the following together:
|
||||
|
||||
* Cinnamon
|
||||
* Nutmeg
|
||||
* Coriander
|
||||
* Brown Sugar
|
||||
* Anise
|
||||
* Citric Acid
|
||||
* Oranges zest
|
||||
* Lemon zest
|
||||
* 2 cups of water

|
||||
|
||||
Mix this up in a pot and get it to simmer for 20 minutes.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
While the pot is simmering take the 2 cups of sugar and blitz it in a food
|
||||
processor. Doing this makes the sugar dissolve more easily later on when we
|
||||
mix everything.
|
||||
|
||||
For now while waiting move the sugar to a large bowl.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the 20 minutes on the pot is up grab a fine sieve and strain the pot's
|
||||
mixture through into the bowl with the sugar. Let cool and mix occasionally for
|
||||
about 15 minutes.
|
||||
|
||||
You're looking for a simple-syrup consistency.
|
||||
|
||||
Once cool you can mix with club soda, sparkling mineral water, or if you have a
|
||||
Soda Stream use that, to add some carbonation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Ration for soda
|
||||
|
||||
**4:1** of Water to syrup.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
# Additional Notes
|
||||
|
||||
You can also add 1 tsp of vanilla bean, or like a splash of vanilla extract
|
||||
near the end when you are mixing with the sugar.
|
||||
|
||||
If the final product is too syrupy then turn it down to like a **5:1** ratio.
|
||||
Any lower and you might start to dilute the flavor too much.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Finally if you don't like the color then you can add blue + red to make the color
|
||||
a bit darker, similar to the pic below. I used **5 blue to 4 red**.
