GIFT GIVING CHOOSING CANADIAN
CANADIAN ALTERNATIVES TO AMERICAN FAVOURITES CHOOSING
B
ourbon, American vodka, California Chardonnay and Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, to name a few, have always been fan favourites. What if we told you that you can still enjoy these styles of beverages — while also trying something different? Whether they be Canadian owned or from around the world, you can still enjoy the aromas and flavours that you’ve grown to love. So branch out and try one of our recommendations — you might just find a new favourite.
With the growing movement to
choose Canadian products, a lot of us are now reaching for alternatives to some of our favourite American beverages.
CANADIAN WHISKYS ARE A GOOD ALTERNATIVE TO CREATE OLD FASHIONEDS — JUST LIKE BOURBON. Muddle a teaspoon of brown sugar in the bottom of a rocks glass with a few dashes of Angostura bitters and a splash of water. Top with two ounces of whisky, add ice and give it a quick stir. Finish with rimming the glass with an orange rind and dropping it in the drink. For another Canadian twist, swap out the brown sugar for a bar spoon of maple syrup!
