Basic Syrup for Sunset Cooler

Read Review (1)

"Basic syrup for Sunset Cooler. The pandan leaves, also known as screwpine, can be obtained from Asian shops. We only use the leafy part and not the green liquid derived from the plant after pounding for coloring food. The leaves gave a beautiful fragrance for the syrup." — Louise

As you know there is 2 kind of pandan leaves , the one only has fragrance called just "pandan leaves" and the other one is called "SUJI Pandan leaves" this one only used for natural food coloring. What I made is mix this 2 kind of pandan leaves makes the syrup more attractive. Crush the pandan leaves and mince 2 suji pandan and cook with water and sugar for 15 minutes, you wont believe the result.
