What it is
This is a concentrated syrup made from blackcurrants. It captures the intense flavor and deep color of the fruit in a sweet, liquid form.

How people cook with it
Cassis syrup is a versatile ingredient that can add a burst of fruit flavor to a wide range of dishes and drinks. It is often used to enhance both sweet and savory preparations.
- Flavoring desserts

To use, simply pour the desired amount of syrup. It can be stirred into plain yogurt or ice cream for a quick dessert topping. For drinks, mix it with still or sparkling water to create a refreshing cordial, or add it to cocktails for a fruity twist. It also works well when drizzled over pancakes or waffles. In savory cooking, a small amount can be incorporated into marinades or pan sauces to complement meats like duck or pork, providing a sweet and tart counterpoint.
