Shirakiku Japanese Yuzu Extract - Pure Yuzu Juice - Versatile Extract Used for Baking, Food Flavouring and Asian Drink Mixture | - 6. 76 Fl Oz

Tastes Fantastic without the super expensive price. Awesome!!!

I recently bought the Shirakiku Japanese Yuzu Extract, and let me tell you, it tastes like pure, fresh yuzu juice straight from the orchard! If you’ve ever had real yuzu, you know it’s hard to capture that unique, bright citrus flavor in a bottle, but this extract nails it. The quality is outstanding—it's super concentrated, so a little goes a long way, and it tastes just like freshly squeezed yuzu juice. The vibrant, tangy flavor makes it perfect for adding a zesty twist to cocktails, marinades, and even desserts. I’ve been using it to experiment with different drinks, and my new favorite is a Yuzu Gin Fizz. The crisp, citrusy yuzu balances perfectly with the botanicals of the gin, making it a refreshing cocktail that feels both light and luxurious. Here’s my go-to recipe: Yuzu Gin Fizz Recipe: Ingredients: 2 oz gin 1 oz yuzu juice (I used Shirakiku Yuzu Extract) 1/2 oz simple syrup Club soda Ice Lemon peel or yuzu slice for garnish Instructions: Fill a shaker with ice. Add the gin, yuzu juice, and simple syrup to the shaker. Shake well until chilled. Strain into a glass filled with ice. Top with club soda and garnish with a lemon peel or yuzu slice for an extra citrus kick. This cocktail is so refreshing and perfect for any occasion, whether you’re entertaining or just want to enjoy a delicious drink at home. The Shirakiku Yuzu Extract really shines here—it adds such a bright, natural flavor without being too overpowering. Why I Love It: Super high quality and fresh: The taste is pure, vibrant, and exactly like fresh yuzu. Versatile: Great for cocktails, but also fantastic in marinades, dressings, and desserts. Concentrated: A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts a while. If you’re a fan of citrus flavors or love experimenting with cocktails, I highly recommend trying this yuzu extract. It’s become a staple in my kitchen, and I can’t wait to find more ways to use it. Definitely a must-have for any home bar!

I absolutely love this yuzu juice! The yuzu flavor is incredibly rich and authentic,bright, citrusy, and wonderfully aromatic without tasting artificial. I used it to make a Yuzu Matcha Basque Cheesecake, and the combination turned out amazing. The refreshing yuzu flavor balanced the richness of the cheesecake perfectly and added a very elegant citrus note. Highly recommend for anyone who loves Japanese citrus flavors or enjoys baking.

The price keeps going up on this but it's so good.

I have been buying this yuzu extract since before the price hike. It pains me to replenish, but this is the best yuzu extract available in America.

I love this yuzu extract! It has a fresh, tangy citrus flavor that I use in so many different ways. I add it to sparkling water, tea, marinades, dressings, and even regular drinking water for a refreshing citrus boost. The large bottle also lasts a long time. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is that the bottle doesn't clearly say "Refrigerate After Opening." That's important information for a product like this, and I think it should be printed on the label to avoid any confusion. Other than that, it's a great product, and I'll continue buying it.

Stopped taking for medical reasons

Originally bought as a gift, it didn't quite make it in time so we kept it. It's so yummy, and it's been fun trying to see where we can use it. It was a much large bottle than expected, so we have plenty to work with still.

Buenisimo para mezclar con agua natural o mineral

This brand of Yuzu juice has a slightly milder taste vs. other brands, and noticeably less sour, but still have that strong distinct yuzu fruit taste. It's excellent regardless for making drinks (which is my typical use a majority of the time). But I find other brands with more intense sour taste are better for cooking or for salad dressing. FYI: this bottle has a best-before date of October, 2025.
