And that has enabled me to try my hand at making cocktails with these two delicious ingredients. So, I\u2019d like to suggest various drinks you can make with a base of maple syrup, wine, alcohol, juice or milk. They\u2019re cocktails which are easy to make, with ingredients that we usually have on hand in our homes.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>Maple cocktails:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Spectacular sparkling wine<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Brut-du-domaine-les-Brome-et-sucre-dertable.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3622\" src=\"https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Brut-du-domaine-les-Brome-et-sucre-dertable.jpg\" alt=\"Brut du domaine les Brome et sucre d'\u00e9rtable\" width=\"490\" height=\"323\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Brut sparkling wine is a perfect aperitif. \u00a0Adding some granulated maple sugar to the sparkling wine has a spectacular effect, producing a dazzling show for the eyes. \u00a0\u00a0And it\u2019s simple to produce this spectacular show: you\u2019ll need a bottle of traditional Qu\u00e9bec-made brut sparkling wine. And you\u2019ll also need granulated maple sugar. It\u2019s important that you use this type of sugar because it dissolves slower in the liquid.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pour two-thirds of your favourite sparkling wine into a champagne flute.<\/li>\n<li>Then pour half a teaspoon of maple sugar into the flute.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Watch closely because you\u2019ll see the level of foam will rise, and that\u2019s normal. There will be a bit of sugar left at the bottom of the flute and it will create a funneling of wonderful bubbles!<\/p>\n<h4>Spiced maple grog<\/h4>\n<p>Grog is the name commonly given to hot rum cocktails. The ingredients of spiced maple grog are spices, rum and, of course, maple syrup! It\u2019s a hot, comforting drink that blends together smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>As a base, you need to use either hot water, a clear juice (apple, white cranberry, maple-flavoured water\u2026), or milk even. The alcohol content should preferably be brown or spiced rum. And, as the star ingredient, you need maple syrup.<\/p>\n<p>To heat the liquids, I recommend you use the steam wand on your espresso machine, if you have one, but if you don\u2019t, a casserole or microwave will do the job just as well.<\/p>\n<p>In a glass coffee mug put:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 ounce of spiced rum<\/li>\n<li>1 ounce of maple syrup<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Pour in some apple juice (or another aforementioned base)<\/p>\n<p>Heat it and add a cinnamon stick and apple slice as a decoration.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Le Whisk\u00e9rable<\/h4>\n<p>Le Whisk\u00e9rable is a cocktail made with milk (almond milk or soya milk, too) and you have two choices:\u00a0\u00a0 serve it cold and well beaten as an ap\u00e9ritif or serve it as hot as the desert. The cocktail has four ingredients: whiskey, maple syrup, milk and coffee.\u00a0 My own personal touch is to serve it with a tiny spoon dipped in maple butter and I garnish the rim of the glass with maple syrup!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 ounce of whiskey<\/li>\n<li>1 ounce of maple syrup<\/li>\n<li>2 ounces of milk<\/li>\n<li>1 short shot of espresso<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For the hot cocktail, heat up the milk beforehand and pour it into a clear, decorated glass coffee mug. Then all you need to do is add in the other ingredients afterwards and there you have your cocktail.<\/p>\n<p>The cold cocktail is just as easy to make as the hot one. You\u2019ll need a mixer and some ice. Then add in the ingredients and once the ice is completely crushed, pour the contents into your previously decorated glass mug. What\u2019s nice about the cold cocktail is that it gets creamy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Non-alcohol maple drinks:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Sugar cream<\/h3>\n<p>For this drink, I got my inspiration from sugar cream. It\u2019s so good I wanted to reproduce the taste.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>4 ounces of 2% milk<\/li>\n<li>1\u00bd ounces of regular or amber-coloured maple syrup<\/li>\n<li>1 to 2 drops of pure vanilla extract<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Heat up your milk in a milk frother, or if you\u2019d prefer, heat it in the microwave and use a small\u00a0\u00a0 electric frother. Then add the amounts of maple syrup and vanilla into the cup and finish off with the hot frothed milk.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>L\u2019abreuvoir \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9rable (The maple spout)<\/h3>\n<p>L&#8217;abreuvoir \u00e0 l&#8217;\u00e9rable ou maple spout\u00a0 is a refreshing, thirst-quenching drink. I\u2019ve tried it myself as a replacement for <i>Gatorade<\/i> during my workouts. The maple syrup is a great alternative to refined sugar. It has several types of minerals, unlike plain sugar.<\/p>\n<p>To make one pitcher, you\u2019ll need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3 \u00bd cups of water<\/li>\n<li>\u00bc cup of orange juice<\/li>\n<li>\u00bc cup of maple syrup<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons of lime juice<\/li>\n<li>\u00bc teaspoon of salt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And there you go!<\/p>\n<p>May the mild spring weather warm your heart!<\/p>\n<p>Happy sugaring season everyone!<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019re wine producers at Domaine Les Brome, but we make maple syrup, too.
