Nature's Flavors Organic Rose flavor for teas is water soluble, in addition they will mix into Glycerin, and alcohol solutions even better than our Organic Flavor Extracts. To add Rose Flavor to your Tea Leaves, and other dried Herbs, simply take one pound of tea or dried herbs and one-half of a teaspoon of your favorite Nature's Flavors Organic Rose Flavor and sprinkle it over your dried tea. For the most even distribution we use a sprayer, instead of sprinkling. Once you have distributed your Flavor over your tea leaves, we recommend that you place these newly flavored tea within a seal-able container like a mason jar, old coffee can, or a zip lock bag, then shake it up to help spread the flavor out, and then let the sealed container sit for 24 hours to allow the flavors to permeate the tea or teas. Nature's Flavors Coffee and Tea Flavors are not set in an oil base, and are not oil soluble. They are a direct evolution from our Flavor Extracts. Like our Flavor Extracts they are set in an alcohol base, in addition, these Organic Tea Flavors also include a vegetable glycerin component to help the flavors permeate the coffee beans and/or tea leaves. It will evaporate out of the beans or herbs usually within the first 24 hours you will smell a little alcohol when you first open the sealed container, any remaining alcohol will burn off immediately when you brew the coffee or tea. This organic rose flavor for teas has no nutritional value as used in this application is calorie, carb, and sugar free. There is no fat. Enjoy.
Ingredients: Organic Flavors, Vegetable Glycerin, and Organic Ethyl Alcohol. The processes for making organic flavors are much the same as for making natural flavors. The ingredients are organic rather than just natural. You start by using only certified organic ingredients when available and when not you may use naturals provided they fit within the definition of natural and only comprise less than 5% of the total amount when calling it 95% organic. When calling it 100% organic you must use only certified organic ingredients and nothing else. Nature's Flavors carries both 95% and 100% certified organic flavors. It is our goal to produce only 100% organic flavor concentrates and extracts as the ingredients become available. In many instances we produce our own organic ingredients to satisfy our strict quality control requirements. Because the industry is still very young the technologies to make these ingredients are still evolving. The only solvents that we use in the development of organic and natural flavors are filtered RO water and organic alcohol. If we can't extract the ingredients through these methods then we don't do it. Steam distillation is another method we employ. Fortunately this is in most cases the only method needed to manufacture these unique flavor concentrates and extracts.
