Natural Cold Remedies in the Barn
It’s that time of year where many people start feeling under the weather. Want to try some natural remedies (obviously in addition to whatever your doctor prescribes)? Check out this blog post!
Green tea is the number one immunity boosting tea! Order a hot green tea (we use Mem Golden Green) with lemon and honey. Delicious + perfect for this time of year!
Uses: spread on a pita and top with pickled veggies + hummus, combine with greek yogurt and use as a base for chicken salad.
Shelburne Vineyard
Freshly stocked: Iapetus wines from Shelburne Vineyard in Shelburne, Vermont. Not only is this the most idyllic place to have an afternoon wine and cheese picnic, but the rustic New England vibes are strong with this one. Get the blueberry/ cranberry/whatever-berry New England wines out of your head... because this isn't that. This is serious, cool climate wine, focused on showcasing the landscape - all wild, fermented and unfiltered. These wines are part of their experimental 'Iapetus' project and are some of the most exciting wines coming out of the east coast at the moment. Subduction is a raw red wine made from Marquette- bursting with dark wild berry fruit and baking spices. Antecedent is an orange wine from Riesling - lights up the palate with pink grapefruit and rhubarb fizz… and Alluvium is a deep colored juicy rose from St. Croix, Petite Pearl, Marquette and a dash of Piquette.
