Crisp Lemongrass Mint White Balsamic adds fresh flavor to marinades, seafood, salads, dressings, and sparkling summer drinks.
When summer meals get lighter, brighter, and fresher, Lemongrass Mint White Balsamic fits right in.
This seasonal favorite is tart, crisp, clean, and refreshing, with the bright flavor of lemongrass and the cooling finish of mint. It is especially good in marinades, dressings, seafood dishes, noodle salads, cucumber salads, and summer drinks.
If you like fresh flavors that work with both simple meals and more creative dishes, this is one to try.
Use it as a marinade
Lemongrass Mint White Balsamic is excellent with seafood, chicken, shrimp, and pork. Whisk it with Basil Olive Oil, Lemon Olive Oil, Lime Olive Oil, or a mild extra virgin olive oil for a quick marinade.
Try it with white fish, shrimp skewers, grilled chicken, or pork tenderloin.
For an easy dinner, marinate white fish with Lemongrass Mint White Balsamic and Basil Olive Oil, then grill or broil until cooked through. Serve with rice, roasted vegetables, or a simple cucumber salad.
Make a fresh summer dressing
This balsamic makes a bright vinaigrette for leafy greens, cabbage slaw, pasta salad, or cucumber salad.
Try it with:
• mixed greens and grilled chicken
• cucumber, red onion, and feta
• cabbage, carrots, and toasted almonds
• cold noodles with vegetables and herbs
• tomato, mozzarella, and fresh basil
The flavor is clean and lively, so it works well when you want a dressing that feels light but still interesting.
Add it to summer drinks
Mint already belongs in summer drinks, and lemongrass brings an extra citrusy note. Try a splash of Lemongrass Mint White Balsamic in sparkling water with lime and fresh mint.
It also works beautifully in mojito-style drinks, lemonade, iced tea, or mocktails.
Pair it with Asian-inspired meals
Because lemongrass is often used in Thai and Vietnamese-inspired cooking, this balsamic is a great match for noodle bowls, rice bowls, lettuce wraps, shrimp, chicken, and fresh herbs.
Try pairing it with Japanese Toasted Sesame Oil or Lime Olive Oil for a quick dressing or dipping sauce.
Keep it simple
You do not have to overthink this bottle. Drizzle it over cucumber slices, use it on grilled fish, whisk it into a dressing, or add a splash to sparkling water.
Lemongrass Mint White Balsamic is one of the easiest ways to bring a fresh summer flavor to the table.
