    I really love how you improved my original recipe Smile

    I'm off to make a batch now !

    Having extra in the freezer - for emergencies - is such a good idea

    Thankyou !

    Great recipe. I'm a fan of the original recipe that this concentrate came from but the convenience of this is a draw card. I also added 5 bruised cardamom pods for a little something extra.
