For the Love of Local

National pride isn’t always paraded. Sometimes, it’s poured. This year, there’s no better way to honour the anniversary of our nation’s Confederation than raising a toast with something made right here in Ontario. Whatever category you’re craving — be it wine, beer, spirits or cider — Ontario’s got you covered with plenty of options for every palate and price point. Sip on spirits crafted in Toronto and Guelph, share a bottle of Niagara or Prince Edward County’s finest wine, or savour a brew or cider hailing from locales such as Thornbury, Muskoka and Beamsville.

Have these Ontario staples on hand and you’ll be all set for Canada Day celebrations and beyond. Here’s to a made-in-Ontario summer!

The classic Canadian Caesar reimagined as a cocktail with botanical gin and goji berry rim salt.

Quick and easy, this snack recipe makes great use of summer's produce bounty.

Give this fireside treat a fun upgrade by simply swapping out marshmallows for mini cheese such as brie or Babybel — carefully flame-roasted on a stick — chocolate for preserves like fig jam and graham crackers for regular ones.
