Master of Mixes Mint Syrup 375ML

Quick Facts: ABV: 0% (Non-Alcoholic)  |  Origin: United States  |  Style: Spearmint Cocktail Syrup  |  Brand: Master of Mixes

Production & Sourcing

Master of Mixes sources its spearmint from the Pacific Northwest, a region long recognized as one of the world's premier mint-growing areas due to its volcanic soils and temperate climate. The syrup is built on a base of sugar and water infused with natural spearmint oils, with glycerol contributing body and mouthfeel. The absence of corn syrup in the ingredient list sets it apart from many mass-market cocktail syrups, resulting in a cleaner sweetness that lets the mint character come through without a cloying finish.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Fresh spearmint rises immediately, carrying a cool, herbaceous quality. There is a gentle sweetness underneath, reminiscent of freshly muddled mint leaves.

Taste: The entry is pure and sweet, with spearmint emerging at mid-palate in a mellow, balanced register. It reads as natural and fruity rather than artificially sharp, delivering noticeable mint presence without overwhelming other ingredients in a drink.

Finish: A clean, fresh muddled-mint character lingers briefly. The sweetness fades evenly, leaving a cool spearmint impression that doesn't coat the palate.

How to Use Mint Syrup

This syrup works as a direct substitute for simple syrup and fresh mint in cocktails where consistent mint flavor is needed quickly. A small pour goes a long way — start with half an ounce and adjust to taste.

• Mint Julep: Provides uniform spearmint sweetness without the inconsistency of hand-muddled leaves, making it ideal for batching at parties.
• Mojito: Adds a reliable mint backbone alongside fresh lime, especially useful during high-volume service when muddling slows preparation.
• Grasshopper: Complements crème de menthe with a softer, more natural spearmint layer that rounds out the cocktail's sweetness.

Best For

• Home bartenders building a versatile syrup collection for classic cocktails
• Hosting summer gatherings where batched Juleps or Mojitos are on the menu
• Adding mint flavor to iced teas, lemonades, and non-alcoholic refreshers
• Bars and restaurants needing a consistent, shelf-stable mint syrup for daily service

Why Mint Syrup?
