Sweet citrus burst of Mandarin Orange will bring this Balsamic Vinegar to your table again and again. Use it on leafy green lettuce or spinach for a refreshing salad. Drizzle over fresh figs for a simple but heavenly dessert. We know that you use it to dip strawberries, but wait till you try it on watermelon! I love it on Goat cheese with a little honey and fresh basil. Great addition to beverages too, hot or cold.
Everything you expect from our White Balsamic Vinegar, with a burst of perfectly ripe, crushed mandarins to give an explosion of citrus — especially good when blended with our Mandarin Orange Olive Oil. Double the citrus!
