The scrumptiously pink preserved Rhubarb in Rosé has received glistening praise for its balanced flavours and homemade feel, earning Augustines of Central coveted gold at the 2022 Outstanding NZ Food Producer Awards.
Outstanding NZ Food Producer Awards testimonial: "Homemade appeal without all the effort! Sticky, sweet syrup, judges would scoff every drop!"
Refined sentimental homestyle flavours with a vibrant flare, every bite is a celebration of naturally cultivated pink flavours from the bountiful landscapes of New Zealand.
In this Augustines of Central award-winning recipe, Gus simmers down rhubarbs until they are fork-tender in a floral and fruity Rosé syrup, a masterclass in artisanal excellence. While Gus’s Rosé syrup recipe is to die for, the tangy rhubarb is the star of the show - subtly sweet with hints of tartness. Most of the organic rhubarb is grown on-site at Augustines of Portobello on spray-free patches, ready for harvest at the start of Spring.
Syrupy and decadent Rhubarb in Rosé wows in home baking or desserts. It gives your sweet treats a vibrant splash of pink and an instant homemade flavour that can’t be topped. Mix Rhubarb in Rosé with apples or strawberries in a homemade crumble or pudding, enjoy alongside a warm blueberry muffin or stack of pancakes, or simply savour with your favourite yoghurt or ice cream. Its irresistible pairing choices are endless!
