Made with select ingredients and pure cane sugar, Monin Cucumber Syrup is a highly concentrated, authentic flavoring offering exceptional versatility for creating specialty beverages.
Tasting Notes • Highly aromatic, fresh aroma; sweet, vegetable, cucumber
Applications • Lemonades, cocktails and mocktails, teas, sodas |

Charlemagne had cucumbers grown in his gardens in ninth-century Francia. They were reportedly introduced into England in the early 14th century, lost, then reintroduced approximately 250 years later. The Spaniards (through the Italian Christopher Columbus) brought cucumbers to Haiti in 1494. In 1535, Jacques Cartier, a French explorer, found “very great cucumbers” grown on the site of what is now Montreal. -Wikipedia |
