Tasting Notes: The color is a lovely salmon color with aromatic fruit, floral and stone fruit notes, and ripe strawberries on the nose and on the palate. It is the essence of summertime and is perfect to drink on its own, or to pair with a variety of food.

Method for the Orange Simple Syrup: Add the orange peels, sugar, and water to a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Boil until the sugar is dissolved and liquid is clear. Remove from heat and let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature to cool. Remove the peels from the syrup and set aside. Pour orange simple syrup into a jar and refrigerate until ready to use.
Pro Tip: In addition to using the orange simple syrup in salad dressing, we like to use it in cocktails, lemonade, iced tea, and even brush it on cakes to keep them moist before frosting them.
We like to go the extra mile when we make orange simple syrup, and after we remove the peels from the syrup, we place them on a parchment paper lined baking tray and bake them in the oven at 100 degrees Fahrenheit/38 degrees Celsius until they are dry. We then process them in a blender and pulse into a powder. We then mix the powder with either kosher salt or sugar, which we use to rim cocktails, lemonade, or iced tea.

Method for the Salad Dressing: Mix all ingredients in a jar and shake hard or whisk to fully incorporate. Let the dressing rest while you make the Shrimp and Scallop Seafood Salad.
Method for the Shrimp and Scallop Seafood Salad: Add 10 of the shrimp and the rest of the ingredients to a large bowl, add the salad dressing and toss well.
Presentation: Line a large bowl or platter with arugula, top with salad. Arrange 10 shrimp alternately with lime slices around the edge. Sprinkle with freshly cut chives, and garnish with Nasturtium leaves and a Nasturtium flower.
Until next time, Santé and Bon Appetit!
About Ninety Plus Cellars
“In 2009, 90+ Cellars founder Kevin Mehra set out on a mission to make the world’s best wines more affordable and accessible to all. His idea was built on the understanding that many wineries around the globe — even the most highly acclaimed ones — consistently produce more wine than they can sell under their own top labels. This was especially true at the time due to the economic recession. Kevin brought on Wine Director Brett Vankoski, and together they started to seek out wineries that had a history of high (90+ point) ratings. They gave these wineries the opportunity to sell more wine, while in turn, giving wine lovers access to these acclaimed wines at better prices. The only caveat was that 90+ Cellars couldn’t divulge the names of the wineries and vineyards. The concept worked, and our label started to take off.
Over the years, we have developed relationships with hundreds of amazing wineries all over the world. These partnerships allow us to offer a highly selective, global collection of wines we know you’ll love; from everyday classics to more premium selections. And we never stop searching for new wines, always striving to make it easy for people to explore, discover and fall in love with great wine.”
