Red Fruity additive recipe

Well lads and lasses, the stuff I made was indistinguishable by any of my mates. Only one knew it wasn't right because the colour was darker. The smell was very much the same as Dynamite Strawberry.

1:Get a pan of water on the stove and add sugar until you have a thin syrup. Bear in mind it will thicken slightly when it cools so you just want a noticeable viscosity OK.

2: When you have your syrup, add as much strawberry essence or even cordial as you want. Taste as you go. Bear in mind it's not for you to drink so you want it quite strong.

3: Once you have the consistency and the flavour right, then add red food colouring until it's a deep red.

Allow to cool and then bottle.

BTW, I added the last of of Dynamite Strawberry and half a bottle of Dynamite Scopex to my mixture to get the Betaine and Scopex into the mixture (an afterthought) but I don't think it was required. I'll try some with an some without and if the Betaine/Scopex makes a difference that I can see, I'll probably buy some.

There you go.....fruit flavoured additive.

PS: The carp thought it was great. Just a pity the tench didn't appear. By the way, it's so colourful, it even turns plain brown/white groundbait a nice red colour.

I refilled my 2 empty Dynamite bottles and I still have a huge coffee jar full of the stuff.

It's lovely stuff. Half of one of the Dynamite bottles (with My version) was enough to make all my day's ground-mix lovely and red and sticky. Perfect for method feeders.

I tell you what. At £2.75 for a bottle of Dynamite, I won't be going back when I can make pints of the stuff for next to nothing.

I might just buy the one bottle or some Betaine/Scopex when I'm making a batch to get the Betaine or the Scopex into the mix but otherwise, mine will do just nicely. I'm not even sure the Betaine or Scopex is that important. It's sweet, red, sticky and it bins groundbait perfectly. Surely the Scopex and Betaine are secondary??

I'd get that patented Andy.

Don't want the 'corporates', or anybody else for that matter, nicking your idea and selling it do we?



Just goes to show what you can do with items readily available and for a fraction of the commercial products.

Well done matey.

Get in there!! It works....and the carp like it too.
