Beach Bonfire
Spring 2016
We love roasting nuts of all kinds—they add flavour and texture to everything from salads to soups—but we most enjoy the surprising depth they can add to cocktails. Try experimenting with different flavours—adding some cayenne for kick or cinnamon for more savoury spiciness. We rim the glass with the nuts, which keeps the crunch while enhancing the drinking experience.
