Luxardo Cherries
Luxardo cherries, made in Italy, are the original maraschino cherries- but are very hard to find. Lucky for you, you can find them at Giolitti Deli! The candied cherries and marasca syrup pair perfectly with various cocktails, and are a great addition to any party. Luxardo is renowned for its maraschino liqueur, which can be used to make a sweeter version of a Manhattan cocktail. To make two servings of this drink, add four oz bourbon whiskey, two oz sweet vermouth, one oz maraschino liqueur, four dashes of Angostura bitters and two tsp of Luxardo cherry juice to a cocktail shaker, then fill with ice and shake. Place three Luxardo cherries in the bottom of two cold glasses, pour half the mixture into each glass, and enjoy! If you are hosting a large party and need a simple cocktail, add a few Luxardo cherries to glasses of prosecco for a special touch everyone will appreciate!
Wild Hibiscus Flowers in Syrup
At Giolitti Deli, we also have Wild Hibiscus flowers, which are edible flowers packed in a delicious raspberry and rhubarb flavored syrup. These flowers can be used in multiple ways for entertaining, such as in glasses of prosecco, as a salad garnish, in cheesecakes, or even by stuffing the flowers with goat cheese. For a delicious cocktail perfect for the holiday season, try making a “Bubbles In The Belfry” drink for guests. In a champagne glass, add 1 ½ oz of gin, ¾ oz of honey and black pepper simple syrup, ¼ oz of freshly squeezed lemon juice, ½ oz of wild Hibiscus syrup, and top with prosecco and a few dashes of Angostura orange bitters.
