Why is there organic coconut sugar in the Real Salt Brine Kit?

The role of sugar in brine is to create balanced flavor and crisp skin.

Most brines contain sugar or brown sugar. This creates a sweet and salty balance of flavor. The infusion of sugar helps to brown and crisp the skin of your turkey. We chose organic coconut sugar for its simple, clean, and real properties as opposed to cane sugar or an alcohol-derived sweetener that would not achieve the desired outcome of crispy skin.

If your diet restricts the use of any sugars, a simple brine can be prepared using only Real Salt Kosher!
