Eat Your Flowers Bundle

A celebration of seasonal florals! I developed both flavors after moving to Vermont where I’ve both had ample space for planting out aromatics AND spent my first 5 years here working with plants at a local nursery (with an enticing employee discount, hehe).

Apricot Yarrow Plum Elderflower Jam is apricot forward. The yarrow amps the acidity of the stone fruit while the elderflower hangs in the background providing a round, grassy flavor. This flavor is elegant, light, and approachable; beautiful with fresh bloomy rind cheeses, lil washed rind stinkers and makes a wonderful cocktail mixer.

Nectarine Lemon Marmalade with Bee Balm + Lemongrass is an amalgam. Where with some V Smiley Preserves you can taste all the ingredients in layers, this is a set piece. The grassiness of the lemongrass and the herbal sweetness of the bee balm flowers combine with sweet nectarine and tangy lemon to produce a flavor that screams CANDY. The working elements are lemon shred and nectarine chunks in a nectarine lemon jelly, flecked with bee balm flowers and infused with lemongrass.

Bundles (2oz or 6oz) include one jar of each:
