Feijoa tincture - lime

30 servings

20 minutes

Feijoa-lime infusion is an author’s drink that combines exotic notes of ripe feijoa and the citrus freshness of lime. Feijoa, known for its unique aroma, adds richness to the infusion, while lime provides a subtle tartness and refreshing note. This drink is prepared using vacuum infusion and sous-vide methods to fully reveal the flavors of the ingredients. Filtration through a fine mesh makes the infusion crystal clear, and added sugar syrup gently balances the strength. Chilled infusion is perfect for cozy evenings and gastronomic experiments. It can be served neat or used as a base for cocktails, creating new interesting flavor combinations.
