At Loki & Co we have a wide variety of flavours such as apple and elderflower, strawberry and lime, and orange and mango. Our refreshing drinks are the perfect to pair with a variety of different flavoured foods. Based on our Loki & Co hard seltzer products we have categorized our food parings into citrus, berries, and tropical fruit. Let's start by simplifying things to correctly combine hard seltzer with food.
Citrus flavoured food pairings
This category includes lime, lemon, blood orange, pomegranate, and grapefruit seltzers, which are distinguished by their citrus acidity. Hard seltzers with citrus flavours go nicely with anything that might use a spritz of lime juice or a splash of mild vinaigrette.
Fresh fish and light salads are great to enjoy with a citrus flavoured hard seltzer. The first cheese category that springs to mind if you're sticking with lime this summer is fresh mozzarella. Burrata, mozzarella, and halloumi are all well-known and well-loved cheeses, and there's a reason why they pair so well with summer salads as they are light and compliment citrus flavours.
Berry flavoured food pairings
Berry flavoured seltzers are made from strawberries, cherries, blackberries, cranberries, or acai. They have a balance of light and refreshing berry-scented flavours like rosé, and we may mix them with spicy foods, earthy flavours, and sweet and sour combinations in the same way.
With berry-flavoured hard seltzers, you may enjoy with Asian stir-fries, wild mushroom risotto, stuffed portobello, and oily fish like tuna, salmon, and mackerel. A summer berry cheese board is the ideal snack to enjoy with a hard seltzer.
Tropical flavoured food pairings
This category includes flavours such as mango, watermelon, passion fruit, pina colada, and coconut. These are a little more difficult to pair with food, but they'll shine with flavours that are equally tropical and robust.
Tropical fruit flavours pair well with chicken, and they're also fantastic with a smoky barbecue taste. They also go well with Asian cuisines, especially when combined with peanuts in dishes like Phad Thai or Chicken Satay.With ceviche with chopped mango, tuna sashimi with sweet and tangy ponzu sauce, fresh figs drizzled with honey, and coconut breaded shrimp, these seltzers are delicious.
Food pairings for all hard seltzer flavours
Food and drink pairing is an adventure, it's about experimenting with different flavour combinations to determine what works best for you and your guests. Fruit platters and charcuterie board are crowd favourites with any flavour seltzer.
