Sugar-Free Emerald Cream Liqueur Essence 20 ml

Sugar-Free Emerald Cream Liqueur Essence 20 ml

Whiskey cream liqueur is one of the world’s most beloved liqueurs – soft, creamy and as much at home in a coffee cup as in a glass of ice. It is also a liqueur that normally calls for a fair amount of sugar to turn out as it should. With Sugar-Free Emerald Cream Liqueur Essence we have removed that step, without removing anything of what makes the style so popular.

After several years of development we were able to present a new type of essence, in which the sweetness is part of the essence itself. The finished liqueur has the same sweetness as a regular cream liqueur and the same round, full impression – the only difference shows when you mix it, because the sugar is not needed. Emerald Cream was the first cream liqueur in our sugar-free range.

Colour & Appearance

The finished liqueur is a light creamy brown, like coffee with plenty of milk, and completely opaque. The texture is soft and creamy, and over ice it thickens into something that almost resembles melted ice cream.

Nose

The nose offers fresh cream, cocoa and vanilla, with a sweet note of cream toffee. Beneath the softness lie the malty warmth of the whiskey and a very faint smokiness, which give the aroma a grown-up feel and depth.

Palate

The palate is smooth and harmonious. Cream and milk chocolate come first, then vanilla custard and soft toffee that spread across the tongue. The whiskey note steps forward towards the end – mild, malty and warming – and balances the sweetness so that the liqueur never feels cloying. The sweetness is at the same level as in a regular cream liqueur and sits well integrated with the other flavours, without sticking out.

Finish

The finish is soft and medium-long, with toffee, cocoa and a creamy roundness. The whiskey leaves a quiet warmth that lingers for a while after the last sip.

How to Use

The essence is mixed with vodka or neutral spirit – the label states which ingredients are needed besides spirit, but no added sugar is required. 20 ml makes 750 ml of finished cream liqueur. Keep the finished liqueur in the fridge. Instructions are on the label.

Serving Suggestions

• Over ice in a tumbler – the obvious serve.
• In a cup of hot coffee with whipped cream on top.
• Shaken with espresso and ice into a creamy coffee drink.
• Drizzled over vanilla ice cream or a warm chocolate cake.
• In hot chocolate in front of the fire.

About the Essence

The range of sugar-free liqueur essences is built on a simple thought: the liqueur should taste as usual, with the same sweetness as usual, but the sugar should not have to be added. It took several years to get there, and we were early with this type of essence.

Sugar-Free Emerald Cream is a sister product to our classic Emerald Cream in the PR series. Choose this version when you want the familiar taste of cream, chocolate and whiskey with one step fewer in the mixing.
