Monin - Blood Orange Syrup

Monin makes its syrups in France, and this one is built around blood orange: bright, slightly bitter citrus fruit with a natural sweetness that never tips into candied territory. It is a workhorse for any bar programme, whether you are building cocktails, dressing sparkling water, or finishing an espresso martini with something more interesting than plain sugar.

Serve chilled, around 8-10°C, so the fruit stays crisp rather than syrupy on the palate. A short pour lifts a Spritz, a mocktail, or a simple soda for guests who want flavour without alcohol. Keep a bottle behind the bar for quick, consistent results service after service.
