Shrub Pairings

 

Our Shrubs are tailormade for easy and inspired entertaining – for one or for many. A splash into sparkling water with a muddle of herbs or a cinnamon stick make a refreshing and simple nonalcoholic spritzer – and topped with a jigger of your favorite spirit, you’ve got a top notch home bar. Try drizzling them with EVOO and salt and pepper on fish, meat, and vegetables prior to roasting. They also make fantastic vinaigrettes.
