TO CUSTOM BLEND:

You may use more or less sugar to taste. The finished product should be sweet, but not too sweet.

You may use more or less FLAVOR CONCENTRATE to make your syrup flavor and color stronger or weaker.

By adding additional CITRIC (FRUIT) ACID you can enhance the tartness of your syrup flavor. Some fruit, such as lemon, are very tart, others, such as bananas, are mild . By varying the amount of CITRIC (FRUIT) ACID you can adjust the mix to suit your taste.
