About Black currant syrup

Black currant syrup is a sweet, pourable preparation made with black currant juice or fruit. It is used diluted as a drink and undiluted in desserts, sauces, and other recipes; the exact proportion of fruit and sweetener varies among products.

It is typically deep red-purple and has a concentrated, tart-fruity aroma and flavour, with a viscous texture. Commercial and homemade versions can differ in fruit content, added sugar, water, and other ingredients, so the name does not describe a uniform recipe.
