How to Measure Concentrated Extracts Without Overpowering Recipes

Extracts are concentrated, so careful measuring matters. A little can transform a recipe, while too much can overpower it.

Best Uses

• Start with one-quarter teaspoon or less for bold extracts
• Use drops for beverages and small batches
• Combine vanilla with stronger flavors for balance

Flavor Pairings

• Almond and vanilla
• Lemon and blueberry
• Orange and chocolate
