Key Lime Margarita

Using balsamic vinegar in mixed drinks is a great way to add flavor without adding sugar, preservatives or artificial coloring. Each tablespoon of balsamic vinegar has only 3 grams of natural sugars from the grapes with the exception of our Vermont Maple Balsamic Vinegar which has 8 grams of sugar because it is made with real Vermont maple syrup. In this recipe we are using Key Lime Balsamic Vinegar instead of simple syrup or agave nectar. Continue reading “Key Lime Margarita”

Raspberry Balsamic Glazed Caprese Chicken

Since Caprese salad is always a hit, why not turn it into a main course?! This one pot dish is both simple to assemble and a mouth full of flavor. We were inspired by a recipe from Karina at Cafe Delites. The biggest notable difference between the two is our omission of added sugar. When using real balsamic vinegar we see no need to ‘sweeten’ the recipe with sugar. We have chosen Raspberry Balsamic Vinegar but this dish would be delicious with Strawberry Balsamic or even Traditional. Continue reading “Raspberry Balsamic Glazed Caprese Chicken”

Gravenstein Apple Balsamic Vinegar Poached Peaches with Herbs de Provence Ice Cream

I love dessert recipes that can be made ahead of time and require few ingredients. With the abundance of fresh peaches we knew a dessert to highlight them was in order. Poaching fruit is quite simple and brings out their natural sugars. And by using our balsamic vinegars no added sugar is necessary. The poached peaches are best served at room temperature, but they can also be stored in the refrigerator to be enjoyed later in the day.
