Cookin’ on the Coast 2024 – Episode 04:
Sea Cider Temperance Cherry w/Homemade Pierogies
In episode #4 of Cookin’ on the Coast, Shanyn Ward from Liquor Plus introduces a delightful non-alcoholic option: Sea Cider Temperance Chérie! Sea Cider crafts both alcoholic and non-alcoholic ciders, and Temperance Chérie is like a cozy hug in a glass—perfect for chilly days and a reminder that self-care is essential. With ripe cherry notes blending beautifully with organic BC apples, this sparkling cider has flavors that echo orchard blossoms kissed by the sun.
It pairs wonderfully with Chef Heidi’s latest dish, adding a lovely cherry touch to the savory mushroom-sauerkraut and potato-cheese combo.
As a bonus, a portion of the proceeds from the Temperance Series supports wellness programs across Canada, nurturing physical, mental, and social well-being. So, raise a glass of Temperance Chérie to toast self-care and soothing moments in times of change!
Head to a Liquor Plus liquor store near you to pickup the Sea Cider Temperance Chérie.
Handmade with love, Chef Heidi’s pierogies are the ultimate comfort food. While making pierogies from scratch can be a bit of a time investment, it’s a fun family project with a delicious payoff. There’s nothing quite like the satisfaction of biting into tender, pillowy dough filled with flavorful custom fillings. In this episode, Chef Heidi prepares two kinds of pierogies—mushroom-sauerkraut and potato-cheese—each bursting with unique flavours. The perfect pairing for these dishes? A cherry cider that adds a bright, fruity contrast to the savory richness of the pierogies.
Joined by Shanyn Ward, Chef Heidi explores how Sea Cider Temperance Chérie beautifully complements the pierogies. They also dive into Sea Cider’s range of offerings and their dedication to supporting community wellness.
