We often ponder what beverage to properly pair with our burgers. Actually, we usually just grab a beer but luckily someone is giving it some real thought. Fiona Beckett’s Matching food & wine post has some suggestions to help us up our game.
She starts with wine. Okay, a burger is just ground steak so why not? Cabernet, preferably, but she suggests a few others.
Next, IPA’s. Beer. There you go. Right up our alley.
Stepping it up, a Manhattan. Now we’re talking! Gourmet burger. Classy cocktail. She says it really, really works.
Finally, a milkshake. Not a big surprise there. Burger, fries and shake. Well, why buck tradition?
So there’s some things to try that we certainly didn’t previously consider. Enjoy!
