Cinnamon Pear Dark Balsamic – Italy
Price range: $5.95 through $35.95
The rich Sri Lankan toasted cinnamon aroma and the sweet taste of Anjou pear are harmoniously combined to make a savory and sweet balsamic vinegar. Paired with Blood Orange olive oil, it makes a delicious vinaigrette for a festive spinach and baby arugula salad; top it with slices of fresh pear, toasted pecans, and dried cranberries. This balsamic can also be used as a marinade for pork or poultry. Vanilla ice cream becomes fruity vanilla cinnamon bun pear ice cream with just a drizzle.

I love this balsamic vinegar! I paired it with the Blood Orange Olive Oil, Dijon mustard and fresh cracked pepper to create a vinaigrette dressing.My salad consisted of dark leafy green lettuce blend, pears, dried cranberries, pecans, and stinky shaved cheese. I felt like my mouth did a happy dance. Highly recommend.
