There's something truly incredible about maple and it's not just the irresistible flavour; it's the versatility. Maple, in its many forms, makes itself right at home in recipes from sweet to savoury. That's why maple has happily RSVP'd “oui” to your next dinner party, where it's keen to show off in these recipes by Maple from Canada: a refreshingly well-balanced cocktail and a scrumptious hors d'oeuvre.
Campari, a refreshing Italian herbal liqueur, is an inviting start to a meal. A heavy pour of rich amber maple syrup complements the bitterness of the aperitif, forming the perfect flavour base for a delicious, sip-slowly cocktail that also includes red vermouth, gin, soda water and freshly squeezed blood oranges. But what makes it especially ideal for your dinner party is its pitcher-or-bowl presentation, meaning your guests can help themselves to the chilled, pre-made cocktail as they please.

Cocktails are ready; now complement them with a tasty bite. Hors d'oeuvres really elevate a gathering, but they don't need to be fussy. Take these maple-infused pinwheels, for example. Time is on your side with flour tortillas acting as the base for store-bought smoked salmon and goat cheese. Before rolling, drizzle each with maple syrup (preferably amber) to harmonize the smoky and creamy flavours of the cheese and salmon. Slice and warm in a hot pan before adding more syrup.
