I will be bottling a porter soon that I am going to add a couple of teaspoons of almond extract to at bottling. Should I boil the extract with the priming sugar to ensure it is sanitary or can I just dump it directly into my bottling bucket at the time of bottling?
 
Also, if you boil it, you'll likely lose a lot of the flavor/aroma you're looking to add.
