A small amount of this pure coffee extract goes a long way due to its concentrated nature. It can be added directly to batters, doughs, frostings, or sauces. When making beverages, it can be stirred into milk, cream, or other liquid bases. It blends well with other flavors, particularly chocolate, vanilla, and caramel, allowing for complex taste profiles. Experiment with small quantities to achieve your desired coffee intensity.

How to keep the rest
To maintain its potency and flavor, store the bottle in a cool, dark place. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can degrade the quality of the extract over time.
