Liber & Co. Demerara Gum Syrup 12.7 fl oz — Concentrated Demerara Flavor & Silky Mouthfeel for Cocktails

Liber & Co. Demerara Gum Syrup is a premium ready-to-use cocktail syrup made from demerara sugar and gum arabic that adds caramel, toffee, and molasses depth to spirit-forward drinks and mocktails.

This 12.7 fl oz bottle delivers a concentrated, fully saturated syrup that recreates the texture and complex flavor of traditional demerara sugar with the smoothing effect of gum arabic. Handcrafted in Austin, TX, the syrup is built for bartenders and home cocktail makers who want bar-quality balance without dissolving or diluting recipes. Each bottle yields roughly 17–25 cocktails, depending on recipe strength, so it’s sized for both occasional sippers and regular hosts.

How does this syrup change classic whiskey cocktails?

Using Demerara Gum Syrup replaces grainy sugar or plain simple syrup with a syrup that contributes richer flavor and a silkier mouthfeel. It highlights caramel and toffee notes while keeping cocktails smooth, making it ideal for Old Fashioneds, Manhattans, and Whiskey Sours.

• Adds molasses-like depth that complements aged spirits.
• Gum arabic enhances body and prevents crystallization.
• Concentrated formula means less volume for balanced sweetness.

Can I use this syrup in tiki and rum-based drinks?

Yes — demerara’s natural sugarcane character pairs exceptionally well with rum, amplifying tropical flavors without overpowering them. The syrup integrates smoothly into tiki recipes like the Aku Aku or banana daiquiri, lending complexity and richer aromatic notes.

• Brings caramel and molasses undertones to rum blends.
• Maintains clarity and texture in shaken and blended cocktails.
• Works well with citrus, coconut, and banana profiles.

What non-alcoholic or culinary uses does it have?

Beyond cocktails, this syrup enriches mocktails, specialty coffees, and loose-leaf teas by adding depth and a velvety finish. It’s also useful in desserts, glazes, and sauces where a concentrated demerara flavor is desired without extra water.

• Smooths and flavors cold brew, lattes, and chai.
• Sweetens and deepens shrubs, sodas, and house-made syrups.
• Use sparingly in dessert glazes, roasted fruit, and baked goods.
