A general term for thick, sweet liquids. It is made by dissolving sugar and adding flavorings, coffee, tea, gum arabic, etc. The simplest way is to dissolve sugar and boil it down. Fruit syrup was originally made by adding sugar to the juice of fresh fruit, but many products use colorings and flavorings such as strawberry, melon, orange, and lemon in the sugar liquid. Grenadine syrup is a type of fruit syrup that is characterized by its pomegranate flavor and bright red color and is used in cocktails. Gum syrup is a colorless, unscented syrup made by adding gum arabic to sugar liquid, and is mainly used in cocktails. Maple syrup is made by concentrating the sap of sugar maples from Canada and the northern United States, and is a flavorful, opaque liquid. It is used on pancakes and other foods. Other types include coffee syrup, which is made from coffee. Syrups are used to sweeten cocktails and drinks, as well as in confectionery ingredients and desserts.

濃い甘味液の総称。砂糖を溶かし、香料、コーヒー、紅茶、アラビアガムなどを添加してつくる。もっとも簡単なのは、砂糖を溶かして煮つめたものである。フルーツシロップは、本来は生(なま)の果実の絞り汁に砂糖を加えたものであったが、砂糖液にイチゴ、メロン、オレンジ、レモンなどの着色料や香料を使った製品が多い。グレナデンシロップは、ザクロの風味と鮮紅色が特色のフルーツシロップの一種で、カクテルに用いられる。ガムシロップは砂糖液にアラビアガムを加えた無色・無香のシロップで、おもにカクテルに用いられる。メープルシロップはカナダおよびアメリカ北部産のサトウカエデの樹液を濃縮してつくったもので、風味のよい、不透明の液状をしている。ホットケーキなどにかけて用いられる。そのほか、コーヒーを用いたコーヒーシロップなどがある。シロップはカクテルや飲料の甘味づけに、また、製菓材料やデザートに用いられる。 [河野友美・山口米子] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
