I LOVE this chocolate sauce! It is really smooth and rich, so a little goes a long way. The squeeze bottle makes it easy to drizzle on ice cream, desserts, etc. for some added yumminess and visual appeal. I like to take a scoop of casein protein powder, mix it with a little water to form a "pudding" and then drizzle this sauce on top. A great snack before bed!
This syrup is delicious! Very good in low carb milk for a dark chocolate drink, or on low carb vanilla ice cream. This is the only dark choc low carb syrup I have found, too!
First I used this on LC ice cream. It's simply too sweet. To make it better I put some in a bowl added about an ounce of unsweetened chocolate and melted it together in the microwave for about a minute. Much better.
Best Berry Flavoured syrup I have tried! Can't believe how good it is! NO weird aftertaste. It's very smooth and smells lovely!! It's a little bit thicker than DaVinci Blue Berry Syrup. Definitely 5 stars!!

Almost all of these are positively delicious and do not taste AT ALL sugar free. The Chocolate is no better than any other brand, but Vanilla, Irish Cream and Caramel are amazingly good. Well worth the $2 difference. Note that some of them have lemon juice or citric acid for tartness, that will curdle half-n-half, so read labels if you're planning italian sodas. Strawberry seems to work fine.

I love Monin! I wish they had more flavors - apple, specifically. Their Blackberry is very nice, I use it in my morning hot cereal (1 beaten egg, 3/8 C flax meal, 1/4 C almond meal and 1/4 C Blackberry syrup - all mixed together), then I throw on top 4 or 5 frozen strawberries and microwave for 3 minutes, I only cook it about 75% through, else it won't be mushy like oatmeal. I break it up with a spoon, drizzle it with cream to taste, then sprinkle it with 1 packet of sweetener (I use Truvia because I like the granules, tastes and feels like real sugar on top.) Tastes just like flavored oatmeal - and it fills me up all morning. I tried it with Banana flavor of the other brand, but not as good. Also, I LOVE the SF Monin Caramel - I make a killer flan with it, where I don't miss out on the "caramelized sugar" flavor at all. Love this stuff - I'm stocking up for the winter.
I know I already reviewed the Blackberry Syrup, but I had to add one thing - Caramel!!! Caramel!!! Caramel!!! This is amazing. Even my husband, who hates all syrups with sugar substitutes, loves this. I've used this in protein shakes, on ice cream, and over flax cereal and it is wonderful.
Thank you, Netrition, for carrying Monin syrups. If there are more flavors available, please, please, please carry them.

Editor's note: This pump is designed specifically for the Monin Syrup 1-Liter plastic bottles. This does not fit the 750 ml Monin glass bottles.
See DaVinci syrup pump for 750 ml glass bottles.
This has a really awful tanginess that detracts from the coffee flavor. It also greatly irritated my urinary tract. I now rely on other brands for cold-brewed liquid coffee concentrates.
