This Pineapple Gum Syrup is meticulously crafted by pressing fresh pineapple and then fusing it with a rich gum syrup base. The outcome is a stunning golden amber syrup that boasts a high viscosity and bright acidity, complemented by an exceptionally rich and smooth texture. A quintessential component in the iconic San Francisco cocktail, the Pisco Punch, this syrup also elevates the flavor profiles of various fixes and cobblers. Its unique blend of natural pineapple essence and luxurious mouthfeel makes it a must-have for cocktail enthusiasts seeking to add a tropical twist to their creations.
Small Hand Foods, established in 2008 by Jennifer Colliau, marks its origin as the pioneering craft cocktail syrup company. Jennifer, while serving at The Slanted Door in San Francisco, sought to recreate a traditional Mai Tai using authentic Orgeat syrup made with real almonds, reminiscent of the pre-Prohibition era. After extensive experimentation, she perfected an Orgeat recipe that closely mirrored 1800s formulations. Expanding her repertoire, Jennifer introduced additional syrups including Gum Syrup, Pineapple Gum, Raspberry Gum, and Grenadine, and began supplying these artisanal products to bars and restaurants across the country. Small Hand Foods is committed to authenticity and quality, crafting syrups in the traditional 19th-century style: devoid of high-fructose corn syrup, preservatives, or any artificial ingredients.
