The Bristol Syrup Co. have absolutely nailed it with this one. It’s got that authentic, sharp tang you want from a shrub, but it’s rounded out so beautifully you don't get a harsh vinegar hit. It's incredibly versatile, working just as well in a simple G&T as it does in a complex, multi-layered cocktail. A top-tier ingredient for any serious bar.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Alchemist's Garden, a bustling cocktail bar in Leeds, wanted to streamline its cocktail preparation without losing the 'craft' feel. They switched from making their own inconsistent fruit shrubs in-house to using the Bristol Syrup Co. No.13 Raspberry Shrub.

"The consistency is brilliant. Every drink is the same, every time. It’s saved us so much prep time during our busiest periods, and  our customers love the sharp, fruity flavour. It’s a staple on our back bar now."

Samuel Jones – Bar Manager

The change led to a measurable 30% reduction in prep time for their best-selling raspberry-based cocktails, allowing bartenders to serve more customers during the weekend rush.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, give the bottle a gentle shake to ensure the contents are well mixed.
  • For best results and  consistent drinks, use a measured pourer (jigger) or a bottle-top pourer.
  • Start with a smaller amount (e.g., 15ml) in your recipes and  adjust to taste, as its flavour is concentrated.
  • Have a look at the Bristol Syrup Co. website for recipe inspiration to get you started!

Keeping It Going

  • Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight before opening. A back bar or dry store is ideal.
  • Once opened, it's best to keep the syrup refrigerated to maintain its freshness and  vibrant flavour.
  • Always ensure the cap is tightly secured after each use to prevent contamination and  preserve quality.
  • Keep an eye on the best-before date on the bottle to ensure you're always serving the best possible product.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Cocktail Syrup

Not sure which syrup is right for your menu? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Consider Your Menu

Think about the spirits you use most. A tart raspberry shrub is a fantastic match for gin, vodka, and  tequila, while other syrups might suit darker spirits like rum or whisky.

Natural vs. Artificial

Syrups using real fruit and  natural sugars, like this one, offer a more authentic and  less 'synthetic' taste that discerning customers appreciate.

Balancing Act

Look for syrups that offer more than just sweetness. A 'shrub' or a citrus-infused syrup adds acidity, helping you create balanced drinks more easily.

Versatility is Key

Can the syrup be used in mocktails, sodas, or even desserts? A versatile product like the Bristol raspberry shrub for catering offers better value for money.

Bottle Size & Pour

For a professional setting, a 750ml or 1L bottle is standard. Check if the bottle neck is compatible with standard speed pourers for efficient service.

What's a 'Shrub' and  Why Does it Make Better Cocktails?

Ever wondered what makes a 'shrub' syrup different from the standard stuff? It's all down to one key ingredient: vinegar. Now, before you pull a face, hear us out! A shrub is an old-school way of preserving fruit by using vinegar and  sugar. Think of the vinegar's role like adding a squeeze of lime or lemon to your drink. It provides acidity, which is crucial for balancing sweetness and  making flavours pop. The Bristol Syrup Co. No.13 syrup uses this technique to create a tart, complex base that regular syrups just can't match. It saves you from adding extra citrus, giving you a more layered, interesting, and  grown-up flavour profile right out of the bottle.
