Flavoring Formula
The flavoring formula for OpenCola is:
- 10.0 g food-grade gum arabic
- 3.50 mL orange oil
- 3.00 mL water
- 2.75 mL lime oil
- 1.25 mL cassia oil
- 1.00 mL lemon oil
- 1.00 mL nutmeg oil
- 0.25 mL coriander oil
- 0.25 mL neroli oil
- 0.25 mL lavender oil
Note: attempts to replicate this recipe in a home kitchen suggest that the water measurement might actually have been a typo, as the results of following the recipe exactly produces a dense glob of gum arabic that does not mix well into the concentrate recipe described below. Using 30.0 mL of water (added after mixing in all of the oils) allows the gum arabic to properly hydrate and you will have a liquid solution much more suited for addition to the sweetened concentrate.

Famous quotes containing the word formula:
“Given for one instant an intelligence which could comprehend all the forces by which nature is animated and the respective positions of the beings which compose it, if moreover this intelligence were vast enough to submit these data to analysis, it would embrace in the same formula both the movements of the largest bodies in the universe and those of the lightest atom; to it nothing would be uncertain, and the future as the past would be present to its eyes.”
—Pierre Simon De Laplace (1749–1827)
