And we’re always looking for new ways to spice it up, which is why we were pumped when we tried out Noble Handcrafted Tonics- a series of gourmet, bourbon enriched syrups that add a serious kick in the nuts to your morning delicacies. Noble Tonics are the stuff food lovers dream of; there are four main tonics (and a fifth absurdly expensive one) including Tuthilltown Bourbon Barrel Matured Maple Syrup, Tahitian Vanilla Bean & Egyptian Chamomile Blossom Matured Maple Syrup, Maple Matured Sherry Bourbon Oak Vinegar, and Pharaoh’s Heirloom Lemon Matured White Wine Vinegar. The obvious use for these is on pancakes, but certain flavors are also great on a salad, or for basting meat to achieve a sweet, boozy flavor. Beauty shot below.

This simple bowl keeps your milk and your cereal (or soup and crackers, milk and cookies) separate until you want them to join in a holy matrimony of crispy deliciousness. The Obol has a nifty stand/handle on the bottom that allows you to hold the bowl up and eat without soggying your cereal, or place the bowl on a table without worrying about unwanted intermingling of foods. It’s pretty much the perfect invention, and it’s definitely every cereal lover’s dream. The Obol is made with a textured, non-slip surface so you wont drop it if you’re the kind of person that likes to eat while wandering aimlessly though the kitchen. Images below.
