So Canadians are giving up on milk and just drinking maple syrup now? Sweet!
I once made the mistake of telling my american coworkers that I buy over a gallon of fresh maple syrup from a local sugar shack each year and I was excited for spring because I was running low… I think I warped their perception of the canadian diet.
The crazy part is, I don’t consume maple syrup that often. But when I do, it’s always way too much.
It makes a good salad dressing when mixed with balsamic vinegar and oil. Also a decent BBQ sauce of Ketchup, Mustard, Soy Sauce, and Maple Syrup
My wife has a mean marinade using maple syrup. I love to use it with chicken thighs I throw on the barbecue for that sweet caramelization.
Nice. It is also good mixed into vodka :)
I have bottles of Sortilège (maple whiskey) and a Tomahawk maple cream (similar to Bailey’s) on the kitchen bar. I don’t even like whiskey usually, but with maple syrup everything becomes good I guess
Hmm, never tried Tomahawk. I will look for that.
Tried it once on Christmas Eve from another bottle in coffee. I’m not into sweet coffee usually, but that was good.
if you like coffee, this vodka is suprisingly amazing. My wife picked it up and I was skeptical because of all the infuses drink that are crap, But this has amazing flavour. It is troublesome in that it goes down like water.

Name checks out.
We know in our hearts it's not true. But we cling to what little magic remains in our minds and hearts and enjoy the fantasy that it is true.
Then if it helps, here are a few things I use it for: crepes, pancakes, French toast, lattes, coffee, maple whipped cream, oatmeal (maple and cream make a mean porridge), I fry eggs in maple syrup and butter, use it in icing, add it to salad dressing, make a glaze from it, sugar/pecan pie tarts, instead of syrup in cocktails, I’ll use it as a topping on ice cream…
It was the primary sweetener in Canada until cane sugar took over, so anything that needs sugar or brown sugar you can substitute maple for.
I usually buy 4L which lasts a year.
I tried explaining this to some Australian friends online and they thought I was trolling.
As an American, I am jealous.
