"Super" juice experiment.
"Super" juice experiment. Been making a few cocktails recently, and have been getting through quite a few citrus fruits in the process. Kevin Kos has a video on super juice, a technique used by some of the modern cocktail makers to save money, time and waste by stretching citrus fruits much further than their usual yield. You zest, weigh the zest, add a ratio (1x) quantity of acid (citric, malic) to the zest and leave it to macerate for several hours. You then blend this with a quantity of water (16x the weight of the zest).
