McCormick Imitation Lemon Extract 16oz (1 Pint) 473ml - FAQ
- Q: Why do extracts use alcohol instead of water?
- A: Alcohol is the best carrier for flavor. It dissolves the natural oils from spices and peels, blends smoothly into water-based recipes, and helps the flavor spread evenly in batters, icings, and drinks. Since flavors are concentrated alcohol is a buffer that allows for the easy measuring of amounts. Alcohol also preserves the extract so it stays fresh and safe for years. Without it, extracts would not mix as well or last as long. Besides, the amount of alcohol is small, and when you bake or heat with it, alcohol's low boiling point (about 170° F) means most of it cooks off, leaving only the flavor.
- Q: Do imitation extracts contain alcohol?
- A: Yes. Most imitation extracts, including McCormick's, still use alcohol as the carrier. The "imitation" part refers to how the flavor is made, not the alcohol content. Alcohol-free or glycerin-based extracts do exist, the only one we stock is Imitation Vanilla Flavor.
