Jelly Bean Wine Bar
Brilliant! I walked into a room to be greeted by 20 great ZinfanFriends and a whole lot of Jelly Bellies & wine.
ZinfanHubby sets up the "wine tasting" and the big surprise!
Blackberry (?) flavored Jelly Belly beans to pair with Central Coast Zinfandel
Can you believe there is a dirt flavored Jelly Belly?!
Lots of Zinfandels on hand, natch!
Super-duper, infinitely cool times eleventy billion. Props, ZinfanHubby! Everyone had a blast, wine novices & connoisseurs alike. Though I was not part of the plotting & set-up, I can deduce that this tasting takes quite awhile to set up (labelling the bean flavors, sorting them by "wine") and can cause a small mess (alcohol + small candies = mess). But it was a huge hit, and an awesome way to get newbies involved.
And if any ZinfanFriends out there would like to give it a try, please let me know. We have tons of leftover jelly beans (yet surprisingly, no leftover wine).
Jelly Bellies Up!
