Sommelier François Chartier has joined forces with Domaine Pinnacle, an Eastern Townships cider maker, to design cider and food pairings in a 10-recipe booklet called Saveurs d’ici. Both recipes and pairings are lively. Examples include pork flank braised with Scotch whisky and spices, to be served with maple cider, and pouding chômeur made with a dash of curry powder and maple syrup, to be served with ice cider.
