Drink Local

Your veggies are domestic and so is your dining table, so how come your vodka comes from France? 

Pemberton, B.C.’s new Schramm craft vodka ($50), made by 32-year-old master distiller Tyler Schramm, is the only certified organic potato vodka in the world.

The winner of Double Gold at the World Sprits Awards in Europe, it’s a sipping vodka with a floral nose and creamy finish that goes down more like a French marc.

So now there is less guilt buying all your clothes from Vanessa Bruno and Isabel Marant.
