Cheeses and Cocktail Pairings
Artisanal Premium Cheese can be excellently paired with a number of great cocktails. Here are several recommendations.
1. Los Beyos with a Gin Martini - The crumbly texture of this Spanish cow’s milk cheese will bring out the taste of a dry Gin Martini.
2. Parmigian Reggianao with a Bloody Mary - Parmigiano has a long history of tomato pairings, and stands true with this tomato juice based cocktail.
3. Aged Gouda and Scotch - The salty caramel tones enhance the smokiness of a good scotch.
4. Pierre Robert with a Tequila Sunrise - Fruit based drinks match well with this triple-crème cow’s milk cheese.
5. Rockie Sage and a Long Island Iced Tea - Pair this savory goat cheese with a refreshing Long Island Iced Tea.

Love this - we often have a snack of cheese while we’re enjoying a cocktail in the evening, and they can work just as well together as cheese with wine or beer.

Pierre Robert is a wonderful triple cream. I love it with fruit and some crusty bread.

Here is a question that I’ve not seen addressed anywhere and I’m hoping to get some help with. What pairings would anyone recommend with various soda pops? I have a few friends that come to dinner parties that do not drink wine or beer so I always have some root beers and colas on hand for them. Also this knowledge would be appropriate for events with children who want to try various foods and have an interest in what the adults are trying. Any help is greatly appreciated.
