Cynar Artichoke liquer
Did you know that there is an artichoke liqueur? This is one of the stranger things I have accidentally discovered browsing food pages online. It’s called Cynar, and is from Italy, where apparently according to this commercial I found, it is still popular. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_2Duf6W6bg
It’s made by the same people that make Campari (one of my favourite aperitifs), but it is not available at BC Liquor Stores. If, in my various excursions around the city’s private liquor stores, I find this I’ll post about it – or if you live in Vancouver, and you see it, please let me know. I will probably pick up a bottle, if only to see if the experience lives up to the commercial.

Any luck finding Cynar in BC?? I am considering bringing a bottle back with me. It’s actually quite good when mixed as you would mix Campari,(spritz…) but it is a bitters, so not so sweet.
