Culinaire Holiday
GIFT GUIDE We’ve scoured our province and further afield to find gifts for your food and drink-loving family and friends, and we’re delighted to present 25 of our favourites here. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
ON THE ROCKS PREMIUM COCKTAILS
There’s a new range of ready to serve premium cocktails to tempt us now too, made from high quality spirits that you’ll already know and love! The Cosmopolitan is made with Effen Vodka, The Margarita is Hornitos Plata Tequila with lime and triple sec, and the Old Fashioned uses a generous pour of Knob Creek Bourbon! Quality stuff in convenient 100 mL and 375 mL bottles, in liquor stores now. 100 mL $7, 375 mL $22, ontherockscocktails.com.
TUMBLER & ROCKS CRAFT COCKTAILS
It’s cold outside, and we enjoy a cocktail after a hard day at our desks, so The Fort Distillery have come to the rescue with four handmade, single-serve and ready to serve craft cocktails using Canadian ingredients, from their distillery in Fort Saskatchewan. Choose Daiquiri, Gin Old-Fashioned, Cosmo or Shaft (vodka/ coffee) in these pocket size 100 mL bottles at your favourite liquor store, $6-$7, tumblerandrocks.com.
CONFETTI SWEETS
Kathy Leskow was a stay-at-home mom looking for something to do. She didn’t know she’d end up with a cookie empire, achieving cult status in Edmonton! Her cookies are so good (we can vouch for that!) that fan faves Chocolate Chunk and Coconut were served twice at pre-Oscar parties in Hollywood! Shop online for cookies and outrageously good cookie mixes at confettisweets.ca, spud.ca, and theorganicbox.ca, or pick up in person in Sherwood Park. From $10.
