    • Citric Acid – Found in lemons, limes, and oranges, this is the backbone of many classic cocktails.
    • Malic Acid – Present in apples and grapes, it provides a softer tartness. A lingering taste like the tartness in Green Granny apples.
    • Tartaric Acid – Predominantly found in grapes, often used in wine-based cocktails.
    • Phosphoric Acid – Found in certain sodas, adding a dry acidity.
    • Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) – Used as an antioxidant to prevent fruit from browning.
    • Lactic Acid – A by-product of fermentation, adding a savory, creamy note.
    • Acetic Acid – The main component of vinegar, commonly used in shrubs and alternative souring agents.
    • MSG - Monosodium Glutamate. Sodium glutamate. A sodium salt derived from glutamic acid. Used in cooking as a flavor enhancer with a savory taste that intensifies the umami flavor of food, as naturally occurring glutamate does in foods such as stews and meat soups.
