Ginger syrup is a classic flavour that has a lot of uses in the cocktail world. This version is quite concentrated, bringing up the spicy profile of the ginger root. Probably at its best in gin based libations, but it would surely increase the exotic value of a rum based cocktail! Of course, it can be enjoyed on ice cream, with soda water, for cooking, pastries, etc.

ABOUT THE MAKER

Les Charlatans is a great line of perfectly balanced cocktail syrups. The makers, originally french, operate and live in Montreal, Canada. Their idea was to create products inspired by old world syrups but with a contemporary twist and, especially, with the cocktail crowd in mind.

Les Charlatans is a small Montreal-based company that excels in making all natural, hand crafted syrups that are both fun to use and tasty. Whether they're mixed with sparkling water, thrown into a dish or blended in a cocktail, they can brighten any kind of gets together. The founder, Jeanne, grew up in France and she remembered how a dash of syrup could make a huge difference in mineral water, be it blackcurrant, orgeat or any homemade creation. That idea was then developed when she moved to Montreal and the brand was born!
