Can’t-Live-Without Food + BEvie Gift Guide
Just in time for holiday gifting, we've asked the food and drink pros from the Adventure Dinner team to reveal their real-life can't-live-without products!
We're sharing the Vermont products they actually stock in their own fridge and pantry, and those secret goodies they reach for when entertaining.
Not local? Don't sweat it, we've highlighted folks who can ship a taste of the Green Mountain State straight to your doorstep. Or send a little Vermont to those you love...sealed with a kiss by us.
Blue Ledge Farm: Goat Cheese
The smooth, ash-ripened Lakes Edge Goat Cheese is a staple on our table. We use this product year-round, but our favorite is crumbled on some freshly grilled watermelon. Take a peek on the Blue Ledge Farm site for shipping and store location availabilities.
Trenchers Farmhouse: Pasta
Who doesn’t love a warm bowl of pasta during these cold winter nights? Get inspired by this gorgeous plate of Bucatini, a highlight from our Northern Italian Feast with Trenchers Farmhouse earlier this year. Head to the Trenchers Farmhouse site to have their pasta and sauces shipped directly to you, and NEW find it in local stores!
PS Join us for January’s Italian Night with Trenchers Farmhouse!
Hill Farmstead: BEER
From one of the most beloved breweries in the country, the Anna is the AD team favorite. This farmstead ale is brewed with Vermont Wildflower Honey and barley. Perfect for sipping while you mix and mingle at the holiday party and equally ready to be on your holiday table. Get some brews shipped directly to you (depending on your state) on the Hill Farmstead website.
SavourÉ: Soda
Our friends at Savouré come up with new unique flavors for their delicious sodas on the regular. Raspberry Elderflower has been featured on our table as a great non-alcoholic option or used as a base for a botanical cocktail. Black Currant Rosemary is another one of our go-to’s. Get seasonal pops shipped to you from the Savouré site!
Jasper Hill Farm: Cheese
It is hard to pick just one cheese to highlight from our partners over at Jasper Hill Farm—so we won’t! We love the gooey warm Harbison, the washed rind Willoughby, and the famous Bayley Hazen Blue cheese. Go peruse the Jasper Hill Farm website to order some yummy cheese bundles!
WIlson Herb Farm: Herbs
Sad face that there are no fresh flowers this time of year, but Wilson Herb Farm offers a selection of dried flowers, herbs, tonics, and more year-round! We loved this Calendula garnish from our Heirloom Botanical Dinner over the summer, and every pantry needs the Dried Basil. Take a peak at the Wilson Herb Farm site to see their apothecary and herb selection that can be shipped to you.
Ellison Estate Vineyard: Wine
Enjoy one sip of Ellison Estate’s naturally made wine and you’ll see why we’re down! Our current faves are the effervescent red, Regeneration 5, or the Zora George St Croix Rosé. Get cozy with one of their bottles and a good book (or trashy read) or bring one to for the host at that holiday party. Check the Ellison Estate for current availability and shipping.
