I’ve just returned from Ottawa and while I was visiting, I couldn’t stop taking photos of SNOW. It was truly beautiful and I found myself staring at trees, and bushes, and roofs!! Usually I’m taking photos of food, but on this trip I was also taking photos of SNOW. Funny, don’t you think?
See what I mean?
Pretty.
When I returned to Toronto I decided to make something that reminded me of all that beautiful snow. After searching thru the Silk website, I found a recipe called “The Orange Snowball”. How could I resist? It gave me the opportunity to buy Angostura bitters and fresh orange juice! (the Silk soya beverage was already in my fridge seeing as I’m lactose intolerant).
Recipe: Orange Snowball (from Silk Soy Beverages)
This is what you need:
- 3 oz Silk Original soy, almond or coconutmilk
- 1 oz freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 tsp agave (I used Redpath Organic Agave Nectar…which is a new product, by the way)
- 2 dashes Angostura bitters*
- Candied orange peel for garnish (I used fresh orange zest)
*Adds a trivial amount of alcohol
Preparation
-
1.Place all ingredients except garnish in a cocktail shaker.
-
2.Add 1 cup of ice and shake well.
-
3.Strain into a chilled cocktail glass and garnish with candied orange peel.
- For a spirited drink, add 1 oz orange liqueur such as Grand Marnier.
Final Product:
Cheers!!
p.s I know that I will making more recipes with Silk, Redpath Agave Nectar and Angostura Bitters (which has a totally cool history, by the way) – all three products are super diverse!! Please take a minute to click on their websites and you will see what I mean.
