Edmond Briottet Creme de Menthe Verte
Mint was already grown during the Bronze Age. The Menthol content to be found in the leaves and which gives its strong taste is very high in round-leaved mint, wild mint and penny royal. Menthe Briottet, prepared from a base of finely sweetened essential essence of mint, gives and impression of pureness, balance and extreme freshness. A delicious fragrance is given off. It is best serves with ice, diluted with fizzy water for its refreshing and digestive virtues. With desserts, it marries well with chocolate or raspberries. But you can also show some originality in drinking it like the people of Kentucky, who serve bourbon with a dash of mint.
Giffard Sirop de Agave 100cl
Giffard Sirop d’Agave is a naturally derived sweetener made from pure agave nectar, offering a clean, rounded sweetness that feels far more refined than standard sugar syrups. Its light amber hue and smooth, slightly silky texture allow it to blend effortlessly into both hot and cold drinks, making it a reliable choice for bartenders and home enthusiasts who want consistency without fuss. Because it dissolves so easily, it avoids the graininess or heaviness that can come from traditional sugar, giving drinks a polished, well‑balanced finish. The flavour is gentle and elegant, with a soft honey‑like sweetness supported by a subtle vegetal note that reflects the character of the agave plant itself. This natural profile means it enhances rather than masks other ingredients, allowing spirits, citrus, herbs, and fruit to shine. In cocktails, it is especially valued for its ability to add sweetness without altering the overall structure of the drink. It works beautifully in Margaritas, Palomas, and Tommy’s‑style serves, but it is equally effective in Daiquiris, Old Fashioned variations, and low‑ or no‑alcohol drinks where clarity of flavour matters. Beyond cocktails, Giffard Sirop d’Agave is versatile enough for everyday use. It can sweeten coffee, tea, smoothies, and desserts, offering a more nuanced alternative to sugar or artificial syrups. Its natural origin and balanced taste make it appealing to those who prefer simple, clean ingredients in their drinks and cooking. Overall, it is a dependable, high‑quality syrup that brings subtle sweetness, ease of use, and a touch of sophistication to any recipe.
