This weekend, we're all about Gin Cocktails 🍸. Peddlers Shanghai Gin is a fusion of eleven rare botanicals. Notes of Buddha’s hand, Sichuan pepper and lotus combine with juniper and other organic botanicals for a distinctive yet perfectly blended gin.

Organic botanicals have been foraged from locations such as Sichuan, Yunnan and Gansu for a distinctively Eastern flavour, unlike any other gin. These ingredients tell a story of the beauty and diversity of China and its unique natural flora.

This one is a MUST for all Gin lovers. Buy in-store or use link in bio to purchase!

Looking to fire up the grill this long weekend? Try these delicious Chili Lime Chicken Kabobs.

For the marinade, you’ll need:

Juice of 3 medium limes
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Cut 2 lbs of boneless and skinless chicken thighs into 1-inch chunks. Allow to marinate for at least 2 hours to overnight before threading chicken onto skewers, and grilling.

Pairs best with Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, or a German Riesling. Visit us at any of our Highlander locations or Bin 905 and let us help you find the perfect pairing for all your long weekend meals!

If you are looking for a go-to white that’s perfect for grilled chicken and summer salads, this clean, fresh Pinot Grigio is the winner.

Aromas of golden apple and pear meld into a floral bouquet of flavors that reveals citrus and a hint of saline on the refreshing, lively finish.

Find this Nadira Delle Venezie Pinot Grigio and more in-store. Visit any Highlander location for more perfect summer suggestions!
