Spread the Warmth Suggestion #4: Tipsy Tinsel Tipples

 
 

Fans of Edible Skinny know that we love the tingling tinsel world of holiday tipples!  Drinking some booze always helps to keep the season bright!   So if you’re looking for that last minute gift for the imbiber in your life or just for yourself to get through the family all gathering together, here’s a couple of our favorites! 

The California based Quady Winery creates sweet and aperitif wines that are perfect for a special occasion!  Their Golden Essenia is a full bodied sweet wine that tastes like spiced orange marmalade and has a fortified alcohol rate of 15%.  A straight glass is perfect with chocolate, cheesecake or goat cheese.  And for those looking for something on the lighter side this dessert works great for spritzers! 

It’s everything you love about the cognac of Grand Marnier, but with a sassy raspberry twist!  This season the iconic brand released a Raspberry Peach to their Signature Collection!  This rose colored liqueur is a blend of the natural flavors of succulent European raspberries and red peaches from Ardeche in the South of France that is then blended with the classically flavored orange essence cognac.  Edible Skinny found this to be a fabulous touch to create that perfect distinctive fruity cocktail such as a Grand Raspberry Peach Cosmo!

High West is a favorite brand of Edible Skinny ever since we got into the world of brown liquor.  And while at the Sundance Film Festival in January, we were able to experience High West’s fantastic Campfire Whiskey, the world’s only blend of Scotch, Bourbon, and Rye Whiskeys. 
 
The exact blend of this concoction is top secret but we do know that the breakdown is the following: the Bourbon is the main flavor, while the Rye is the enhancing flavor, and the accent is found in the Scotch whiskey.  The result is a sweet, spicy, and smoky taste that is perfect on the rocks around a campfire roasting S’Mores. 

So whatever you poison here’s to Holidays full of Tipsy Tingling alcohol and life being delicious!
