Bay leaves (Eugenia polyantha) contain essential oils (citral, eugenol), tannins and flavonoids. Unfortunately, so far these two plants have only been consumed traditionally so they are boring and the rest is thrown away, therefore researchers want to use these plants to make fruit syrup. The research method was an experiment with a completely randomized design consisting of 1 treatment and 5 levels of bay leaf addition denoted by the letter (S). The materials used in this study for the manufacture of the product consisted of kemantan fruit, bay leaves, granulated sugar, CMC, and other. The steps: first, making bay leaf extract, second, making kemantan fruit syrup. Organoleptic test to provide an assessment of color, aroma, taste, texture, thickness, preference and overall with the rating format 5-1.

While the treatment for taste, thickness, texture, preference and overall assessment was S1. Kemantan syrup with the addition of bay leaves has a significant effect on texture parameters, very significant effect on color, taste, thickness, preference and overall and no significant effect on aroma
