Summer is the perfect time to expand your palate. With so much fresh produce in season and the sun shining, what better time to try something new? Check out these must-try summer food & cocktail pairings.
Grilled Tomato Salad & Red Wine
Salty, sweet, light and delicious. This amazing salad pairs the fresh flavours of tomatoes and nectarines with the salty deliciousness of grilled halloumi cheese. Pair with a smooth red wine of your choice for a perfect summer lunch.
Fish Tacos & Strawberry Smashed Soda
The fruity flavours of this strawberry, gin & soda cocktail balance the crisp spiciness of fish tacos. A perfect summer patio pairing.
Chicken Pasta & White Sangria
Creamy chicken pasta chock full of sundried tomatoes and spinach sounds delicious on it's own. Paired with a sharp, sweet sangria? *chefs kiss*
Seared Salmon & Rose
Rose? All day! A nice fruity rose pairs well with just about any seafood, but we highly recommend throwing a beautiful salmon filet on the BBQ. Add a strawberry salad on the side and your taste buds will be dancing.
Margherita Pizza & Negroni
The simple, classic flavours of a margherita pizza - tomato, basil and mozzarella - absolutely shine when paired with another classic italian, 3 ingredient creation; the Negroni. Savoury and refreshing, margherita pizza and a negroni were basically made for each other.
Corn on the Cob & Lager
It is peak Ontario sweet corn season, and nothing complements that incredible taste like a sweet, slightly earthy lager. Lagers are light-bodied and crisp, so they’re not going to wreck your palate for the simple flavours of the corn.
Smashed Tea & Chicken Wings
This refreshing, not-too-sweet, southern-style hard iced tea is perfect for hot summer days, backyard bbq's and bonfires. Toss some wings on the grill while you're tipping one back and you're good to go!
Charcuterie & Chardonnay
Cheese + Meat + Wine = perfection.
