Kokum (Dried) for Liqueur Infusions – Flavor & Pairing Tips

Dried kokum, widely used in coastal Indian cooking, brings vivid ruby color and a pleasant, wine like sourness to liqueurs. Its tangy, slightly fruity character balances sweetness and brightens heavier bases such as rum or dark spirits. Kokum works beautifully with spices, citrus, or tropical fruits, adding refreshing sharpness and layered depth. It is perfect for vibrant, coastal inspired liqueurs with a clean, lingering finish.
