Flavor Profile
Brewch Sweet Mango opens with an intensely sweet, ripe tropical mango character -- the lush, candy-forward sweetness of a fully ripe mango puree that the German tasting panel simply described as 'sweet mango puree,' a perfectly concise summary. The first impression is bold and tropical: sweet, aromatic, and unmistakably mango without any green or unripe sharpness.
The mid-palate is rich and smooth with a natural funkiness and creamy tartness that rounds out the sweetness and adds authenticity. The profile avoids the one-dimensional quality of artificial mango candy, delivering the full complexity of a ripe fruit. The finish is long and tropical, lingering with sweet mango depth.
Assertive, high-potency intensity. Start at 2-3 drops per 100ml -- the sweet mango character is vibrant and amplifies quickly in light and sparkling bases. Natural, authentic, and highly versatile.
Bar Mixology
Brewch Sweet Mango is designed for dessert-style tropical cocktails and fruit-forward mocktails where its intensely sweet, candy-like mango character creates maximum tropical impact. Rum and tequila are the ideal base spirits -- white rum pairs naturally with the tropical mango sweetness for a mango daiquiri or colada variation, while tequila blanco creates a luscious mango margarita at 4-5 drops per serving.
The sweet profile integrates exceptionally well in cream-based applications: a mango sipping cream or mango frozen cocktail benefits from the rich, lush mango body that holds up against dairy. For mocktails, blend with sparkling water and lime for a refreshing, candy-sweet mango spritzer.
- Rum mango daiquiri or colada: 4-5 drops -- shake with ice
- Tequila mango margarita: 4-5 drops -- shake with lime and ice
- Mango sipping cream or frozen dessert cocktail: 5-6 drops with cream base
- Simple syrup: 1 part Brewch to 50 parts syrup for tropical bar service
High-potency concentrate -- always start at 3 drops and taste before adding more.
Sparkling Water and Seltzer
Brewch Sweet Mango is a high-potency concentrate in sparkling applications -- begin at just 2-3 drops per 100ml and taste before increasing. Even at low doses it delivers a vivid, sweet tropical mango character that transforms plain sparkling water into a candy-like mango seltzer. Add flavoring after carbonation and swirl gently to preserve effervescence.
For the Mango Lime Seltzer, pair 3 drops of Sweet Mango with 1 drop of Lime Wedge added last -- directly to the finished glass -- to preserve the volatile lime aroma. The lime cuts through the sweetness of the mango profile, adding a tart citrus edge that makes the combination more refreshing and prevents cloying sweetness. Maximum 4 drops total per 100ml for this high-potency flavor.
- Subtle accent: 2-3 drops per 100ml -- start here; high-potency flavor
- Full profile: 3-4 drops per 100ml maximum for sparkling applications
- Mango Lime Seltzer: 3 drops Sweet Mango plus 1 drop Lime Wedge per 8 oz -- add lime last
- Hard seltzer batch: 6-8 drops per liter -- add post-fermentation
- Smoothies and shakes: 4-6 drops per 8 oz blended with tropical fruit or vanilla protein
Sugar-free, keto-friendly, and clean-label. A crowd-pleasing tropical seltzer option.
Homebrew Applications
Brewch Sweet Mango is an outstanding post-fermentation addition for tropical fruit and hop-forward homebrew styles. Add after active fermentation is complete to preserve the delicate sweet mango aromatics. For a 5-gallon batch, start with 30-40 drops -- use conservatively as this is a high-potency concentrate -- and taste before packaging.
It excels in hoppy IPAs and pale ales where the sweet mango character harmonizes with tropical and stone fruit hop varieties, adding a candy-mango depth that amplifies the fruit character of the hops. Light lagers and wheat beers benefit from the tropical sweetness as a summery accent. For kombucha secondary fermentation (2F), add 12-18 drops per gallon for a richly sweet mango profile.
- IPA or tropical pale ale: 30-40 drops per 5-gallon batch -- start conservatively
- Light lager or wheat beer: 25-35 drops per 5-gallon batch
- Kombucha 2F: 12-18 drops per gallon -- probiotic-safe; use conservatively
- Hard cider: 25-35 drops per 5-gallon batch
- Hard seltzer: 20-30 drops per 5 gallons
Always add post-fermentation. The water-soluble formula disperses evenly without cloudiness or additional processing.
