Anyone have any recommendations on what % to use this at ? I'm not sure and I don't wanna ruin my juice. Any help would be appreciated.
It largely acts as more of a muting agent than a souring agent. It's useful for that but not for getting a sour flavor if that's what you're after. 0.5-1% is about all you'll ever need it for in a mix.
Thanks man I appreciate the response so fast.
Gotcha. Probably not best for that. What's the recipe, and what are you trying to amplify?
I don't have a recipe. I have hail Mary attempt that came close but still doesn't pop rite I used 6% pink lemonade 2% key lime and .5 sweetener and came a lil close but its missing the zing its vape wild pink elephant name changed to first ade I loved it.
It's not going to make your juice sour.
I just wanna make my pink lemonade pop.
I like it at 1% but only in combination with citrus flavorings. Doesn't add sour like others said but it helps to bring out the citrus.
Yeah a company I loved shut down and there pink lemonade was the best so trying to clone it.
As others have said, not really great at making things taste sour (you probably want something with malic acid rather than citric acid). I use it very sparingly, about 0.5% to make citrus flavours "pop" a bit more in fairly simple fruit heavy recipes. I've tried it with cherry and berry flavours and found it a bit "meh" and like u/Forment_life has said, tended to mute those flavours.
I'm just trying to make a good pink lemonade I'm trying to make my pen clone of a company's that has.now closed its doors it was my favorite juice.
