We didn’t need another reason to visit 20 20 Distillery, but the good folk there have given us one anyway. The Cooroy distillery recently launched LIVE ON THE MEZZ, a weekly music series featuring some very talented musicians entertaining the distillery’s discerning whisky and gin drinkers every Saturday from 2pm to 6pm. There will be a rotating line-up of musicians, with plenty of local and emerging Sunshine Coast acts who will take to the distillery’s mezzanine level. We’re talking the likes of Jordan Mac, Sali Bracewell, Manoa and Nathan Kaye. Gather together your mates, nominate a designated driver and relax while listening to some great tunes. 20 20 Distillery is at 1/5 Taylor Court, Cooroy. 0467 818 738 or 2020distillery.com.au
While spring is a time for fresh, healthy food, we also reckon there is room for a treat or two. The team at Mayver’s is great at providing inspiration, and at the moment in the salt off ice we are drooling over these PB BREAKFAST BITES, created by @countdown_til_dinner. Just mix together three-quarters of a cup of Mayver’s smooth peanut butter, two tablespoons of vanilla protein powder, two tablespoons of coconut flour and a quarter of a cup of maple syrup until combined. Pop the mixture in the fridge for 15 minutes to firm up a little then roll into about 30 small balls. Get some pretzels and place each ball on top of a pretzel, then add another pretzel on top of that and squeeze them together slightly. Dip in melted dark chocolate, then let them set in the fridge before enjoying!

Dining has never played a bigger part in our lives, so here salt shares news, information and products that enhance our passionate consumption.
There are so many clever food producers here on the Sunshine Coast and if you haven’t hear of SILVER TONGUE FOODS before, well, let us introduce you. Silver Tongue is a bakery that makes sourdough and crackers, plus jams and preserves. We’re particularly taken with the Organic Raspberry Jalapeno Jam on the Smokey Sea Salt Sourdough Cracker. Add in some soft cheese and you have the perfect match on your next platter. Other Silver Tongue accompaniments include the Organic Fennel & Orange Pickle, which is wonderful on roasts, pizzas, salads and platters; and the crunchy Organic Zucchini Pickle, which adds some zing to salads and antipasto platters. Find Silver Tongue Foods at many IGAs around the Coast plus Silo Wholefoods in Yandina. Search for ‘Silver Tongue Foods’ on Facebook.
Want a springtime cocktail that is as pretty as it is tasty? How about a RASPBERRY MOJITO? For each drink you’ll need half a lime, cut into wedges or slices, six to eight raspberries, a handful of mint leaves and a good teaspoon of sugar. Pop into a glass and muddle well with a muddler (a wooden spoon works too). Add some ice and a few tablespoons of white rum. Top up with some soda water and stir, then add some mint leaves. You can vary the amount of sugar to make it more or less sweet. 3 LEVEL Waterfront Dining Hub

We were thrilled when The Shed opened its doors at its new location in Palmwoods – the store has everything we loved when it was in Forest Glen (antiques, jewellery, collectables, art and vintage treasures) but in Palmwoods it also boasts the CHEW CHEW BISTRO. The licenced eatery off ers all-day breakfasts and lunch, plus fantastic coff ee and sweet treats. The owners tell us that most of the food and coff ee on off er is produced by local businesses and growers. The Shed is at 3-5 Main Street, Palmwoods. 5479 6603 or theshedsca.com.au
