*addendum to “What to serve with the Bird”
————————————————————————————————————–
I promised a few Picture of the Day subscribers a non-alcoholic option for Thanksgiving.
Also – several readers asked for dessert suggestions. See my ideas below……
==============================================================
For a Non Alcoholic Choice – I HIGHLY recommend this punch.
(I made it, tried it, drank it & can tell you — it is DELICIOUS!)
Sparkling Pomegranate Punch

|
|
Delicious Punch – make me, drink me!
========================================================
There are MANY dessert options.
Here are a couple of my favorites:
|
|
|
|
Rosa Regale
– found in the Sparkling Wine Section.
I always like to START with a sparkler
& ending with one is also a nice touch……
Slightly floral with strawberry and raspberry aromatics.
This is a dessert sparkler, so it’s on the sweet side.
It goes great with chocolate (or any dessert really…..)

|
ChocoVine Wine
(really, I’m NOT kidding!)
~ChocoVine is a fine French Cabernet
combined with a rich dark chocolate from Holland,
paired together to create a decadent, silky smooth drink.
It can be served on the rocks & is a dessert in itself.
No food pairing necessary….. not kidding!

Trimbach Alsace Gewurztraminer
~ would pair wonderfully with Apple or Pumpkin Pie
(find it in the FRENCH section of your wine store)

Gobble Gobble – Happy Thanksgiving everyone…….
(let me know if you have more wine questions!)
