Savory Snack Pairings
Love Corn pairs well with crisp sparkling water or a light beer to balance the salty crunch. Brown Bag Crisps go beautifully with white wine or craft beer, depending on the seasoning. Pea Pops work with kombucha for a refreshing tangy contrast.
Sweet Snack Pairings
Popcorn Shed’s caramel flavors are excellent with cold brew coffee or a glass of chilled milk. Hip Chocolate pairs nicely with red wine or a rich black tea. Jealous Sweets and Candy Kittens are fun with sparkling water or mocktails for a fruity, fizzy treat.
