Food & Wine | Wine lovers rejoice with My Wine Canada!

With Catherine actively working for all things Health& Nutrition, and Amanda plugging away with Family Lifestyle and Photography, it looks like I am back to writing about Food, Wine & Lifestyle topics. Not that I’m complaining by any means… It’s nice to have a fully functioning DoTheDaniel.com family on board tackling every Lifestyle topic you could imagine.

Judging from the number of wine-related posts that are on this blog, I think it’s clear that we’re wine lovers here. We love exploring new wines and it makes gift giving so easy!

One of the newest releases that I am excited to tell you about is that of Burnt Ship Bay Estate Winery out of the Niagara-On-The-Lake region of Ontario. This new wine has stolen my heart and will surely do the same for you. It might even make a believer out of the “Anti-Canadian” wine drinkers in the world. Let me tell you why!

Food & Wine | Alvear Sherry & The Summer Cocktail

The more that I talk about the summer season and its subsequent cocktails, the more I get excited for the possibilities. I like to think of mixology and bartending in the same way that I do cooking. It’s truly an art and meant to be experimented with alongside beautiful ingredients and an adventurous spirit. The trend of classic cocktails and their resurgence has been a topic that I have spoken to before and I’m sure will mention again throughout the summer. Recently I ventured in the world of Spanish Sherry with Bodegas Alvear Wines and found that this once over looked item can truly make your summer cocktails something to remember. Let me tell you how here! Continue reading “Food & Wine | Alvear Sherry & The Summer Cocktail”
