With a long weekend ahead, most of us are looking forward to quality time with family, friends and loved ones. Spend less time in the kitchen and more time around the table with our easy to prepare breakfast and brunch ideas for a relaxed weekend morning.

A shimmering wine with a subtle pink undertone, Leopard’s Leap Culinaria Brut MCC pairs perfectly with the marigold-hued richness of egg yolk.

The secret to really unique, and flavourful pickles lie is in the spices add to the brine. Carrots become more exotic when pickled with mustard seeds, Pimento, apple cider and bay leaves.

While the importance of family is hardly anything new, it has become a very topical subject in a year when a pandemic forced us to question our priorities. Bringing families together around good food and wine is one of the passions of the Leopard’s Leap wine brand as well as Leopard’s Leap Family Vineyards in Franschhoek. This sentiment is also at the heart of the newly introduced Leopard’s Leap Family Collection Heritage Blend. An accessible red that is easy to enjoy and a versatile partner for extended family meals.

This year we might have to rethink how we do gettogethers. Perhaps we feel safer in the open air and perhaps our budgets only allow for something as basic as a hotdog. But whether it is a year-end event, office party, birthday bash or holiday do, use our sausage and sauce combos for a party with pizzazz! 

It’s hard to beat the classic combination of a proper Frankfurter on a bun with mustard, but do try adding some pickled cucumber or go for a tangy apple sauce! Both sauces are delicious and the versatile Leopard’s Leap Shiraz is a cool companion to this pumped-up hotdog.
