Wild Hibiscus Flowers

Is anyone else excited that it's Friday! It's been a busy week and we're feeling like winding down with a cocktail. Evolve's Pink Effervesence is the perfect sparkling wine to enjoy on this sunny Friday.

 

 

 

 

 

We're raising the stakes by adding a beautiful Wild Hibiscus flower into the bottom of the champagne flute. It is fascinating to watch the tiny bubbles surround the blossom as it unfurls in the glass.

What a treasure....these little beauties are totally edible and taste almost like a cross between raspberries and rhubarb – they are delicious and make the perfect sparkling wine cocktail. Wild Hibiscus Flowers come packed in a natural syrup and by adding a little of that syrup to your cocktail or glass of champagne it transforms the drink into a perfectly pink, slightly tart masterpiece. They are so much fun, a great conversation starter and totally original. Pick some up to enjoy in today's sunshine or to impress your friends at your next soirée, you won’t be sorry. 

 

 

The Wild Hibiscus Flower Company is a small family owned business in Sydney, Australia. They are available at Well Seasoned in our extensive mixology section.

Introducing Well Seasoned Compound Butters

It’s a beautiful sunny Sunday in Langley! Sunday…sunshine….you know what that means? It’s the perfect day to dust the cobwebs off your grill, and officially kick off BBQ season. As most of you know, we are pretty serious about our BBQ at Well Seasoned. We stock only the best sauces, rubs, and seasonings.

This year, we wanted to look at a new way to elevate your grilling. The question was how? We already offer a number of different classes and top of the line BBQ products. We decided to think outside the traditional BBQ sauces. Have you ever wondered why your steak is so juicy at a restaurant? And why you can’t replicate that at home? We’re about to let you in on a little secret…those juices…melted butter. For real!

Butter is the perfect topping for a freshly grilled steak! Our chef’s decided to play with this idea and create a line of house made compound butters. We are currently stocking four varieties:

• Blue Cheese & Chive – Perfect topper for a freshly grilled steak 
• Double Garlic – Fresh vegetables, grilled fish, crusty bread…the possibilities are endless
• Bacon Butter – This is perfect of freshly baked bread or biscuits. Serve on top of steak, or chicken and spread on burger buns
• White Truffle – Serve on top of potatoes, popcorn, it’s rich and so delicious! Each one is incredibly versatile and delicious

Perfect for grilling, and also the perfect substitute for traditional butter in some of your favorite savory recipes. Stop by today to get yours!

Looking to spice things up? You know, really put your taste buds to the test? We guarantee you're about to meet your match thanks to our new Ass Kickin' Hot Sauce Challenge Kits. Not to mention, this is the perfect way to sample several different varieties and discover which one you like best.

Challenge yourself, a friend or loved one to make it through this book of pleasure and pain. It features twelve different .75 oz containers, ranging from mild, to kick yo' ass hot.

We all know that someone...someone that claims nothing is ever too spicy for them. Have they taken the crazy ass challenge? From stupid, all the way up to certifiable, these ghost pepper sauces are sure to impress. Can you talk about the perfect gift...or revenge? You decide!

Either way, this challenge is certainly not for the faint of heart, do you have what it takes? Kits
