2014 Summer Fancy Food Show: Part III--Cheers!


From chocolates infused with liqueur to sparkling wine, you can always find a way to get a buzz on at the food show!

Who doesn’t like a mix of Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey with dark chocolate? I’ll toast to that! (Goldkenn’s gold-bullion stacked chocolate was definitely a showstopper!


 
To get even more toasted, try a BuzzBar (alcohol-infused ice cream for adults). I went for the Vanilla Daze (alcohol = cognac) but it was a bit too much alcohol for me.


 
Owl’s Brew was definitely “hop”ping! (I went for a sample of the Pink & Black—fresh-brewed Darjeeling hibiscus tea with lemon peel, strawberry and lemon juice—with amber ale).



Best wine label belongs to Brunelli’s red (which tasted like a fine Barolo):


 
With World Cup fever then at its peak, the Brazil section of the show was definitely the place to be for celebratory drinks. Monte Paschoal Moscatel is a delicious bubbly (available in NYC in Brazilian restaurants), it was a lovely way to end the show on a high note!



Cheers!
