Ghetto Gastro works in collaboration with Fly by Jing, an expert in creating Sichuan Chilli Sauce to create the brand new Spicy Sovereign Syrup. It blends together the Sichuan Chili Crisp from Fly by Jing with the custom blend abolitionist alternative to cane sugar that is developed by Ghetto Gastro.
The two sweeten the syrup with dark maple syrup which is harvested from sustainable and organic processes made alongside New York local forestry initiatives. Ghetto Gastro states that “We chose the name Sovereign Syrup in respect to our ancestors and their reverence for the land. Sovereign also speaks to your choice. What you bring into your home and put in your body reflects what matters to you.”
