MONTECRISTO invited some of the country’s best bartenders and mix masters to share their unique spins on a quintessential Canadian drink, using Walter All-Natural Craft Caesar Mix.
As partner/executive chef of Vancouver’s Belgard Kitchen, I love incorporating food and liquor. Our business holds a Manufacturers License, which is a very unique and rare license in Vancouver. Because of this, we can only sell beer and wine made on-site. Not being able to serve vodka pushed us to be creative with our Walter Belgard Caesar; once our Postmark Brewing Pilsner, brewed on site, was ready to pour on-tap, we found the perfect concoction for our specialty brunch beverage.
