Flavored Vinegars
Whether it’s used to make marinades, cocktail mixers, salad dressings, or more, vinegar is a jack-of-all-trades. The days of relying only on white, apple cider, and balsamic varieties are over. Specialty flavored vinegars are becoming more popular because of how versatile they are in gastronomy. Acid League boasts a unique lineup of flavors, with the garden heat flavor making for a tantalizing and spicy seafood marinade. The other flavors, along with O’s citrus champagne vinegar, are easy to get inventive with.
Stasher Bags
Stasher bags a great stocking stuffer for foodies who are also passionate about sustainability. These reusable silicone storage bags reduce plastic waste, work in the freezer or fridge, are dishwasher safe, and some will even stand up on their own or clip to a keyring. The durability of the bags stands up to bumpy rides in a hiking backpack or loaded work bag, keeping snacks safely tucked away.
Honest John Bitters Samplers
If you have foodies that are interested in trying their hand at mixology, look no further than the sample sets from Honest John Bitters. While bitters are most used for adding a punch of flavor to cocktails and mixed drinks, they can be used the same way that you would use vanilla extract. Bitters flavors range from fruity and citrusy to herby and savory. Anything from baked goods to oatmeal is fair game for an addition of bitters!
