Vanilla Extract

Description:

Vanilla extract adds a warm sweet aroma without necessarily increasing sugar. It pairs well with cream, coffee, rum, whiskey, and chocolate liqueurs. Additions like this sit between flavor and aroma. They are easy to underestimate, but they can make a familiar recipe warmer, spicier, or more dimensional. Dose aromatic and sweet details on the low side, especially in new recipes. They should support the cocktail's main idea rather than become a separate smell rising from the glass.
