Toasted nuts, Lemon Zest, Flowers
Maura Gramzinski of Redcamper Picnic Supply in Denver, CO
Maura’s (@redcamper) original product was a 35mm slide tote made of original travel snapshots, which evolved into the USHwy89 Paper Goods line inspired by those images of road trips and vacations paired with a sense of humor. Gram style. While it might not make sense, it was from those two products that the RedCamper Picnic Supply emerged with the creation of our County Fair Award Winning Deliciousness; and the even newer Good Food Award winning Cherry Fig Mostarda and the Good Food Award winning Cocktail Cherries. Perfect. Life's journey can be a twisting turning road of adventures.
The Colorado Apricot is almost a mythical fruit, only rarely escaping the late spring frosts to grow into a beaming golden orb. These precious fruits sought to be paired with an equally mythical spirit, the Polish gem, Żubrówka, a potato vodka infused with bison grass, sourced from the primeval Białowieża Forest, hand picked and dried under natural conditions. With a little savory rosemary, pink peppercorn and vanilla extract sourced from Madagascar we created a slightly tart, earthy spoon of sunshine worthy of the most exotic fairytale. Perfekcja!
