STOCK SYRUP:
4 cups water
4 cups sugar
1 tsp citric acid
VARIATIONS:
Cranberry and pomegranate cordial:
100g fresh cranberries
1 cup pomegranate juice
Passionfruit and star anise cordial:
1 NOMU Cook’s Collection Whole Star Anise
4 tins passion fruit pulp
Lime and lemongrass cordial:
120ml fresh lime juice
1 stalk lemongrass, roughly chopped
STOCK SYRUP:
Begin by making a batch of stock syrup. Place all the ingredients in a pot on the stove, turn up the heat and stir until the sugar and citric acid have dissolved.
VARIATIONS:
Cranberry and pomegranate cordial
Blitz the cranberries and pomegranate juice until smooth, and then strain the mixture through a very fine sieve. Add 1 cup of the mixture to 2 cups of stock syrup, then dilute as desired with soda water, lots of ice and a sprig of mint. If you can’t find fresh cranberries, use frozen and boil in the pomegranate juice on the stove for 5 minutes. Allow to cool before use.
Passionfruit and star anise cordial
Infuse 2 cups of the stock syrup with the NOMU Cook’s Collection Whole Star Anise on the stove. Allow to cool, then remove the star anise. Strain the passion fruit pulp through a fine sieve, leaving some extra pips in, if desired. To make the cordial stir the strained pulp into the syrup, then dilute as desired.
Lime and lemongrass cordial
Infuse 2 cups of the stock syrup with the lemongrass on the stove. Allow to cool, add the lime juice and then strain through a fine sieve. Serve over ice with soda water and a twist of fresh lime.
Tips: For a perfect gift, pour the cordial into clean, sterilized jars and tie with a gorgeous tag and ribbon.
