- Dessert-style cocktails
- Fun mixed drinks with soda or juice
- Adding flavour to desserts, baking, or milk-based drinks
It’s especially popular for party-style drinks where sweetness and smoothness are key.
What Alcohol Base Works Best?
For best results, use a clean neutral spirit or vodka at 38–40% ABV:
- Neutral vodka → ensures pure candy flavour
- Filtered spirit → smoother, cleaner finish
- Avoid strong or aged spirits, as they can overpower the sweet profile
This allows the confectionery-style sweetness to shine without interference
