Cranberry Shrub
This cranberry drinking vinegar is a great way to spruce up your holiday drinks and cocktails. Add a bit of sparkling water, ginger beer, or tonic water for a non-alcoholic sipper. Or, add a splash of gin or vodka with a few ounces of your favorite sparkling water for a tangy cocktail. It's even delicious as a substitute for plain vinegar in your vinaigrette recipe.
Italian Fig Cookies (Cuccidati)
Cuccidati are Italian cookies with a sticky fig filling — think fancy, gourmet version of a fig Newton! They are traditionally served at Christmas time in Italy and I finally nailed an old family recipe. The fig and date filling is wrapped in a soft, sweet dough, then baked and dipped in festive frosting decorated with sprinkles. These are perfect for gifting!
