SPICY STARBUCKS VIA® COCKTAIL NUTS



Spicy Starbucks VIA® Cocktail Nuts image

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup Cashews
1 cup Walnuts
1 cup Almonds
2 tablespoons Butter
1 tablespoon Red Vinegar
1/4 cup Honey
1 packet Starbucks VIA®
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon Chile powder
1/4 cup Papaya
1/4 cup Mango
1/4 cup Pineapple

Steps:

  • Toast nuts on a sheet pan for 10 minutes at 300F degrees. Remove nuts from oven and turn temperature down to 225F degrees.
  • While nuts are toasting, combine all ingredients together, except dried fruit, in a heat-proof microwave container. Microwave briefly (20 seconds) to melt and combine mixture.
  • Add toasted nuts to mixture and stir to coat. Spread in an even layer on a baking sheet.
  • Bake for 45 minutes at 225F degrees. Stir nuts to evenly coat and bake on all sides.
  • Spread and press dried fruit onto nuts and place back in the oven for 15 minutes.
  • When candied nuts and fruit have cooled enough to handle - break up and place in an air tight container.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh ingredients: Using fresh, high-quality ingredients will result in a more flavorful cocktail.
  • Measure accurately: Accurate measurements are essential for a balanced cocktail. Use a jigger or measuring cups to ensure you are using the correct amount of each ingredient.
  • Shake or stir properly: The method of mixing your cocktail will affect its texture and flavor. Shaking a cocktail will create a frothy, aerated texture, while stirring will create a smoother, more mellow texture.
  • Use ice wisely: Ice is an important ingredient in cocktails, as it helps to dilute the alcohol and chill the drink. Use large ice cubes or spheres, as they will melt more slowly and dilute the drink less.
  • Garnish with care: A garnish can add a touch of elegance and flavor to your cocktail. Choose a garnish that complements the flavors of the drink and that is easy to eat.

Conclusion:

With a little practice, you can easily make delicious cocktails at home. Experiment with different ingredients and techniques to create your own unique recipes. Remember to have fun and enjoy the process of creating and drinking your own cocktails!
