Syrup
1:1 Gomme
A tier
1:1 gomme is equal parts sugar and water with gum arabic: thinner, easier to pour, closer to classic simple in sweetness per ounce, still silkier than plain 1:1 simple. Use it in shaken drinks that already get dilution. Rich gomme can over- sweeten if you do not adjust.

1:1 and rich gomme were both listed so recipes could specify texture and strength.
