Bumbu

Post by Ronh »

Does any one happen to have some insight on making a bumbu rum clone or similarities?

Take neutral alcohol or a very light rum. Dilute to 35%. Add sugar, most sources suggest around 40grams per liter.
Add flavorings and essences. In the case of bumbu I guess banana and a bit of clove. Others brands favor cinnamon.
Add glycerin to achieve the right texture and sweetness.
Add caramel to make up desired color.
Edit: forgot to mention vanilla flavoring. The most common of all.
