How to prepare every range we make

One page, every dose. Each figure below is read off that product’s own specification, and each row links to the step-by-step method on its range page.

Every method here is read off the pack

Nothing on this page is a suggestion. Each dose below is the one printed on that product’s own specification — the same figure our technical sheets and our sales team quote — and each row links straight to the step-by-step method on that range’s page. If a category is not listed, we have not published a dose for it, and you should ask us rather than guess.

The one rule that catches everyone out

A premix doses in grams and a syrup in millilitres. They are not interchangeable, and a syrup dosed by weight will taste thin. Check which one you are holding before you measure.

What we have not published a method for

Konjac Pearls, Japanese Imported. These ranges carry no published dosage on our product pages, so no method is stated for them here. Ask our team and we will send the specification rather than have you work from an approximation.

Do I dose a premix by weight or by volume?

By weight. A premix doses in grams and a syrup doses in millilitres, and the two are not interchangeable - a syrup measured by weight will taste thin. Every dose on this page is the one published on that product's own specification.

Can I use hot water instead of hot milk for a milk mix?

No. A milk mix is built on milk - the milk is what carries the flavour, which is why the method starts with 100 ml of hot milk rather than water.

Why does green tea need water below boiling?

Boiling water strips green tea: the leaf gives up its bitterness before its aroma, and what arrives is astringent and flat. Brew it at 70-80 degrees, steeping two to three minutes, and it stays sweet.

Do popping boba work in a hot drink?

No. Keep popping boba out of hot drinks and hot desserts - the membrane dissolves in heat and the pearls will not burst.

Is the tea concentrate step optional?

Yes. Ten to fifteen millilitres of tea concentrate deepens the tea note - black for milk premixes, green for fruit - but the drink is complete without it.
