Gourmet Coffee Syrup
Life’s Added Pleasures!

Google

Gourmet Coffee Syrup is a blessing for those who simply cannot get enough of coffee, no matter how many cups they drink. Coffee syrup is typically made from fructose, corn, or sugar cane syrup, water, and coffee. What sets the gourmet syrups apart from the regular syrups is the type of coffee used to make the syrup.

Coffee beans are broadly classified into two main types: Robusta and Arabica. Regular coffee powders, instant coffees and home brews are made from the Robusta beans; whereas the Arabica beans (what connoisseurs would call the genuine thing!) are what gourmet coffee is made from. Thus, coffee syrup that is made using gourmet coffee is known as Gourmet Coffee Syrup.

Types of Gourmet Coffee Syrup

Gourmet Coffee Syrup is available in many different varieties, as shown below:

1. Flavored: A large variety of flavorings can be added to Gourmet Coffee Syrup to give you flavored coffee syrup. These wonderful flavorings enhance the taste of the coffee syrup and give you a whole new taste altogether. Some of the available flavors include vanilla, almond, strawberry, chocolate (my personal best!), apple, banana, caramel, cinnamon, mango, cherry, amaretto, Irish crème, passion fruit, coconut, lime, kiwi, etc.

2. Sugar-free: All coffee syrups contain sugar, and a lot at that! In fact, if you were to have Gourmet Coffee Syrup straight up without mixing it with something else, you would hate the taste, so sweet it is. The high sugar content can be a problem for diabetics or those who are trying to lose weight. But with the sugar free versions available, no one needs to give up the pleasures of Gourmet Coffee Syrup just yet. Sugar free does not mean that the syrup is not sweet, only that a low calorie sugar substitute is used instead of regular sugar.

3. Alcohol: Most coffee syrups are non-alcoholic, but some are available that contain alcohol. These also go by the name of coffee liqueurs. Gourmet Coffee Syrups that contain alcohol are great for spiking a punch or making an alcoholic beverage. However, these are not meant for children and adults should also use sparingly.

Gourmet syrup can be used in the following ways:

  • With milk
  • With coffee
  • To make milkshakes
  • As ice cream topping
  • In cakes
  • As dessert topping
  • In sodas
  • As pancake syrup
  • With bottled water

With the many new flavors that are being added to everyday, you need not live with the same taste of coffee every morning. And apart from that, you can now enjoy the taste of coffee in several more ways and not just with your daily cuppa.

To ensure that you always dispense only the exact amount of and not more or less, you should buy a throw pump with it. Most manufacturers of Gourmet Coffee Syrup stock the pumps.

Storage

  • It should be stored in a cool dry place, but not in the refrigerator.
  • Always store the syrup in the same bottle that you purchased it in and do not pour into a different container.

With Gourmet Coffee Syrup appearing on the scene, coffee lovers surely never had it better!
