By far the strongest and most alcoholic - obviously - of the Lothlorien range this was the one I was most keen to play with! A rich, sweet liqueur with a full-on feijoa flavour, this was also quite thick and syrup-like fresh out of the fridge, but it thinned out as it warmed. The obvious first test - drizzled over fruit salad and French vanilla ice-cream. Sure enough, it was simply amazing! A strong feijoa and honey flavour that complemented rather than drowned out the other flavours, this also went very well used in a custard and drizzled over hot sticky-date puddings with sliced banana.
I reduced some of this down, adding only a tiny amount of vanilla extract to shift the colour to a more 'toasted' shade, and used it to make a gel on top of a #FoodLab cheesecake. It was so amazing, giving a rich feijoa gel that offset the quieter flavour of the cheesecake. Everyone who tried it agreed this was a wonderful, if a little sweet, topping. The extra sweetness of course coming from the honey in the liqueur.
Overall, this would be wonderful drizzled over ice-cream and freshly sliced fruit, and I am thinking of ways it could be used in a salad dressing, and included in a meat (probably pork or chicken) marinade too. Roll on BBQ season so I can play with the ideas a bit more!
