Bar Mixology
Brewch Blackberry excels in bourbon and rum-based cocktails, delivering authentic berry character at just 3-13 drops per standard pour. Build into a blackberry bourbon smash for a sophisticated twist, or shake with rum for depth and complexity.
For mocktails, the bold profile pairs well with sparkling juice and a touch of capsicum for that signature virgin bite. Add 3-10 drops per 100ml to the shaker before ice for full integration, or float 2 drops on top as an aromatic finish.
- Blackberry Bourbon Smash: 4-6 drops per serving
- Vodka sodas and gin tonics: 3 drops for a subtle accent
- Simple syrup: 1 part Brewch to 50 parts syrup for bar service
Bramble Cocktail: Build 4 drops Brewch Blackberry, 60ml gin, and 20ml lemon juice over crushed ice. Drizzle 10ml simple syrup on top.
Sparkling Water and Seltzer
Transform plain sparkling water into a refreshing flavored seltzer with just 2-5 drops per 100ml. Add after carbonation and stir gently to preserve effervescence. For home seltzer machine users, add flavoring to the bottle after carbonating, then invert once to distribute.
Hard seltzer producers can scale to 8-12 drops per liter, adding post-fermentation before final carbonation. The water-soluble formula integrates cleanly without cloudiness, maintaining the crystal-clear appearance consumers expect.
- Subtle accent: 2 drops per 100ml for a hint of blackberry
- Full flavor: 5-6 drops per 100ml for complete profile
- Smoothies: 5-8 drops per 8oz blended with ice and fruit
Blackberry Burst Seltzer: Add 4 drops Brewch Blackberry to 350ml sparkling water. The dark berry profile creates a rich, fruit-forward seltzer.
The sugar-free, keto-friendly formula makes Brewch Blackberry ideal for health-conscious consumers seeking natural flavor without calories or artificial sweeteners.
Homebrew Applications
Add Brewch Blackberry post-fermentation to preserve the delicate flavor compounds that would otherwise be driven off during active fermentation. For a 5-gallon batch, start with 30-40 drops and adjust to taste before packaging.
Particularly effective in sour beer, wheat beer, porter where the berry profile complements the brew character. The probiotic-safe formula makes it ideal for kombucha secondary fermentation at 4-8 drops per gallon.
- Sour Beer: 35-45 drops per 5-gallon batch
- Wheat Beer: 30-40 drops for a subtle accent
- Kombucha 2F: 4-8 drops per gallon
- Hard cider: 35-45 drops per 5-gallon batch
Blackberry Wheat Ale: Add 40 drops Brewch Blackberry to a 5-gallon wheat beer at packaging. Creates an authentic fruit beer with natural berry tartness.
Add during transfer to secondary or directly to the keg or bottling bucket. The water-soluble formula disperses evenly without additional mixing.
