{"product_id":"bacanha-bio-litschi-sirup","title":"Organic Lychee Syrup","description":"\u003ch2 id=\"speakable-headline\"\u003eLychee syrup with the aroma of the fruit of love\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote id=\"speakable-summary\"\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eBacanha's organic lychee syrup is a French fruit syrup with natural lychee aroma, crafted in a workshop near Paris. Sweet, floral, with a tart finish. There are four ingredients on the label, and 400 ml makes about 20 glasses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp id=\"speakable-definition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLychee syrup\u003c\/strong\u003e brings a fruit into your glass that is hardly available fresh here, and it belongs to the Sirop Brut line from the Parisian manufactory Bacanha. The lychee originates from southern China, where it has been cultivated for over 2000 years and is known as the fruit of love. Its taste lies somewhere between grape, rose, and a hint of nutmeg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSweet, floral, with a tart finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone who has peeled a fresh lychee will remember the scent. Floral like a rose, sweet like a grape, and underneath it something spicy that you cannot immediately identify.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis syrup hits exactly that intersection. It is floral, juicy, and spicy, and in the end, a slightly tart note remains, which prevents it from becoming perfumey. The label lists organic cane sugar, water, natural lychee aroma, and citric acid. A list of ingredients hardly gets any shorter than this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeel free to be sparing when measuring. One spoonful in a large glass is sufficient, because the aroma of the lychee takes up more space than you might be used to from a berry or a peach. Use too much, and you will quickly end up with a drink that tastes like a scented candle rather than fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe classic is called Lychee and Rose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBacanha explicitly recommends the lychee paired with rose, and the two complement each other like two voices in the same song.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a glass, it makes for a great apéritif with sparkling wine, turns a gin and tonic into something significantly more interesting than usual, and becomes a lemonade in soda water that no one would identify as syrup. It is also at home in bubble tea, as well as in sorbet, exotic fruit salad, or a coconut cream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you would like to try the duet, the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/bacanha-bio-rosen-sirup\"\u003eorganic rose syrup\u003c\/a\u003e is available right next to it in our shop. For a zesty counterpoint, we recommend the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/bacanha-bio-passionsfrucht-sirup\"\u003eorganic passion fruit syrup\u003c\/a\u003e, which balances the sweetness of the lychee with acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to capture a fruit that won't wait\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lychee is an impatient fruit. After harvesting, it loses its color and scent within a few days, which is why we mostly only know it here from a can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aromas for all Bacanha syrups are created in Grasse in the hinterland of the Côte d'Azur, the city that has been considered the world capital of perfumery since the 16th century. Extraction, distillation, and enfleurage are the processes used to extract fragrance from fruits and flowers, and the more carefully one works, the closer the result comes to the fresh fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe syrups are blended in Saint-Soupplets near Paris, using organic cane sugar from Brazilian regenerative agriculture. \"Preserving the authenticity of the aromas,\" as the manufactory describes its work, is the real challenge with such a fleeting fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll varieties maintain the same balance of acid and sugar, a pH value below 4.5, and around 60 degrees Brix, which is why they turn out less sweet than usual. From the Bacanha range, we carry \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/bacanha-sirup\"\u003e25 varieties\u003c\/a\u003e, from citrus to floral to spicy. A beautiful journey for a glass of water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo parts lychee to one part rose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen used sparingly, the floral sweetness stays in check: one part syrup to 8 to 10 parts water, plus a few ice cubes and a slice of lime. For the duet with rose, use two parts lychee to one part rose, otherwise the flower will take control. Once opened, the bottle belongs in the refrigerator and will keep for 2 months.
