Guava Berry - (BRW)

Bar Mixology

Taste is personal, so start low and build -- every amount here is a starting point. Brewch Guava Berry delivers a multi-dimensional tropical berry profile that elevates island-inspired and fruit-forward cocktails. White rum and coconut rum are the natural base spirits -- the fruity sweetness of the guava bridges the tropical rum character while the dark berry tartness adds a sophisticated complexity. Build into a tropical daiquiri or rum punch at 4-7 drops per serving for a signature profile that goes beyond standard mango or pineapple tropical drinks.

For mocktails, the guava-berry fusion pairs beautifully with hibiscus and a squeeze of lime for an exotic zero-proof tropical refresher. The tart berry complexity also works well with tequila blanco in a guava margarita format at 2-3 drops per serving.

• Rum daiquiri or tropical punch: 2-7 drops -- build directly into the shaker
• Tequila guava margarita: 2-7 drops per serving -- shake with ice
• Hibiscus mocktail with lime: 2 drops plus Hibiscus accent for balance
• Simple syrup: 1 part Brewch to 50 parts syrup for bar service

Start at 2 drops and taste before adding more. The dark berry tartness can sharpen in citrus-forward builds at higher doses.

Guava Berry Rum Punch: You'll need 2 oz white rum, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz simple syrup, 6 drops Brewch Guava Berry Extract, up to 11 to taste, 2 oz pineapple juice, splash sparkling water, ice, and mint sprig and lime wheel for garnish. In a shaker with ice, combine rum, lime juice, simple syrup, pineapple juice, and Brewch Guava Berry Extract. Shake for 10-12 seconds until chilled. Strain over fresh ice in a highball glass. Top with a splash of sparkling water. Garnish with mint and lime wheel.

Guava Berry Hibiscus Refresher Mocktail: You'll need 5 drops Brewch Guava Berry Extract, up to 7 to taste, 2 drops Brewch Hibiscus Extract, 8 oz sparkling water, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, 0.25 oz agave nectar, ice, and lime wedge and fresh mint for garnish. In a glass over ice, combine both Brewch extracts, lime juice, and agave nectar. Stir briefly. Top with sparkling water and stir once gently to integrate. Garnish with lime wedge and mint.

Sparkling Water and Seltzer

Taste is personal, so start low and build -- every amount here is a starting point. Brewch Guava Berry translates beautifully to sparkling water and hard seltzer applications, where the sweet-sour tropical character creates a refreshing and complex flavored drink. Start at 2 drops per 100ml and adjust to taste. Add after carbonation and swirl gently to preserve effervescence and maintain the juicy top notes.

For the Guava Berry Hibiscus Seltzer, pair 5 drops of Guava Berry with 2 drops of Hibiscus. The floral hibiscus note complements the tropical guava character and deepens the dark berry complexity, creating a layered seltzer that is both exotic and refreshing.

Guava Berry Hibiscus Seltzer: You'll need 5 drops Brewch Guava Berry Extract, up to 9 to taste, 2 drops Brewch Hibiscus Extract, 8 oz (240 ml) cold sparkling water or club soda, and ice (optional); fresh mint sprig for garnish. Add 5 drops of Brewch Guava Berry Extract to a glass. Add 2 drops of Brewch Hibiscus Extract. Pour cold sparkling water over the drops. Stir once gently to integrate. Add ice if desired. Garnish with fresh mint sprig. Serve immediately.

• Subtle accent: 2 drops per 100ml -- start here
• Full profile: 3-4 drops per 100ml for a bold tropical berry seltzer
• Guava Berry Hibiscus Seltzer: 5 drops Guava Berry plus 2 drops Hibiscus per 8 oz
• Hard seltzer batch: 20-40 drops per liter -- add post-fermentation
• Smoothies and shakes: 5-9 drops per 8 oz blended with tropical fruit

Sugar-free, keto-friendly, and clean-label -- an excellent choice for consumers seeking an exotic fruit seltzer beyond standard citrus or berry options.

Homebrew Applications

Taste is personal, so start low and build -- every amount here is a starting point. Brewch Guava Berry is an outstanding post-fermentation addition for tropical fruit and berry-forward homebrew styles. Add after active fermentation is complete to preserve the volatile guava aromatics and dark berry esters. For a 5-gallon batch, start with 380 drops (about 12.7 ml) and taste before packaging.

It excels in hefeweizens and fruit wheat beers where tropical fruit is a traditional pairing, and adds an exotic dimension to hoppy IPAs and pale ales where tropical hop varieties create natural synergy. For kombucha secondary fermentation (2F), add 80-110 drops per gallon (about 2.7-3.7 ml) for a bright tropical berry profile that develops well over 2-3 days.

• IPA or tropical pale ale: 380-560 drops per 5-gallon batch (about 12.7-18.7 ml)
• Hefeweizen or fruit wheat: 380-560 drops per 5-gallon batch (about 12.7-18.7 ml)
• Kombucha 2F: 80-110 drops per gallon (about 2.7-3.7 ml) -- probiotic-safe
• Hard cider: 380-560 drops per 5-gallon batch (about 12.7-18.7 ml)
• Hard seltzer: 380-560 drops per 5 gallons (about 12.7-18.7 ml)

Always add post-fermentation. The water-soluble formula disperses evenly during racking without cloudiness or additional processing.
