    While continuing to stir, add the caramel color, natural flavors, and citric acid to the mixture. Stir until the ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is an even color.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Acids and Preservatives

    Next, add the phosphoric acid and sodium benzoate to the mixture. Stir thoroughly to ensure all components are evenly distributed.

  4. 4
