Combine syrup and sage leaves in ultrasound machine for 20 min (cold extraction). Strain and filter (yield ~300 ml infused syrup). Dilute with 50% water (150 ml). Adjust acidity to 2% total using acid blend (citric:lactic:malic = 50:30:20; per 100 g cordial: 1.0 g citric, 0.6 g lactic, 0.4 g malic). Confirm °Brix target ~35 and pH target ~3.2.
