In Les vergers Boiron’s cocktail-focused class, Philip Khandehrish, Senior National Beverage Ambassador, will explore three distinct techniques to elevate mixology utilizing agar and our frozen and shelf-stable fruit purees.
Agar fluid gel adds smooth yet structured texture, perfect for innovative garnishes or layered drinks. Agar caviar, small flavor spheres that deliver intense fruit flavor, add a playful twist to cocktails. Lastly, agar foam provides a stable, airy topping that enhances both the presentation and sensory experience of a fruit-focused beverage.
Les vergers Boiron has been the industry leader in premium frozen and ambient fruit purees for over 80 years. With a portfolio of 50+ fruit flavors, most of which have no sugar added, we offer a range of fruit solutions to provide beverage professionals with creativity at their fingertips. Taste matters, which is why Les vergers Boiron focuses on the fruit, and sources the very best from around the world to deliver unparalleled flavor and consistency.
