Sonnentor Organic Syrup
No scientist can say with certainty in which country syrup was invented. On different continents, people independently discovered their own ways of thickening juices and fruits. Some Native Americans trace the popular maple syrup back to a group of Iroquois. They had set up camp under maple trees and scooped rainwater from a hollowed-out stump to cook food. As the water began to get sweeter as it boiled, the Iroquois suspected that the good taste was inside the maple tree. They chopped off its bark, collected the sap running out in vessels and put hot stones inside. This caused much of the liquid to evaporate, leaving the sap as a sweet syrup.
In the Orient, the Persians were probably the first syrup producers. However, they did not use maple, but sugar cane. Thanks to the caravans to India, there was enough sugar cane in the Orient for lucrative syrup and sugar production. The term syrup comes from the Arabic šarāb, which means "drink". In the Middle Ages, "syrupus" was primarily used to refer to viscous remedies. However, mainly fruit juices and plant extracts were used for these remedies, because for centuries sugar was an expensive luxury in Central Europe. This only changed when sugar beets were cultivated on a large scale in the 19th century. Now people heated water with fruit, strained the liquid, mixed it with sugar and boiled it until only viscous syrup remained.
Instead of fruit syrup, it was even faster if normal sugar syrup was mixed with herbs, spices, extracts or flavourings. This syrup variant became the basis for countless lemonades and soft drinks. Syrup has the advantage that it has a long shelf life and can be stored in a space-saving way. For this reason, many fast-food restaurants now buy their soft drinks not in bottles but in large syrup sachets. These are mixed together with carbonated water directly into a beverage cup full of ice cubes. And more and more people are also using syrup at home to mix with still or sparkling water. If you want to sweeten your everyday life without artificial flavourings, you should try the high-quality organic syrup from Sonnentor.
