This isn't a fixed-ratio recipe book. Every recipe is built around a base — a syrup, cordial, shrub, or infusion — that genuinely depends on your batch size and your ingredient's potency, so each one tells you exactly which studio tool and settings to use to dial it in, with a quick-reference ratio if you'd rather start pouring immediately. Three samples are open below. The full guide adds nine more, a worked example for scaling any recipe with the Batch & Costing Calculator, and a sourcing index across all twelve.
