If you’d like to transform still or sparkling water into a sugar-free drink, we have just the recipe for you!
Adding a fruity Flavour Nation flavour, sweetener and a dash of citric acid can transform water into a flavoured cold drink for you without you having to add sugar or a syrup concentrate.
Recipe for sugar-free flavoured water:
Ingredients:
-
1.2 grams Flavour Nation Sugar-Free Sweetener
-
2 grams Flavour Nation flavouring essence
-
1.5 grams Citric acid
-
Still or sparkling water (just less than 1 litre – 995.30 ml)
OPTIONAL EXTRA – PRESERVATIVE
- Sodium Benzoate – 0.250g (ONLY required if you’re bottling your water for resale and require a preservative)
Method for making flavoured water:
1. Weigh the sweetener, and sodium benzoate in a small amount of water, and ensure everything is well dissolved.
2. Weigh and add the flavouring to the mixture.
3. Weigh the citric acid and mix it into the solution from step 2.
4. Once everything has dissolved, add the remaining still or sparkling water until the total volume reaches 1 litre.
Important Note: Make sure the preservatives are well-dissolved before adding the acids to avoid a chemical reaction.
Our fruit-inspired Flavour Nation essences thrive where there is a harmonious balance of sweet and sour in the mix, so if you’d like to completely transform a glass of water to be a next-level-delicious, sugar-free cold drink, then we suggest there is a sweet and citrus ingredient in the mix alongside our flavouring essence.
