Local Sparkling Juices

December 27, 2012 - Posted by Steve Lofman in Western Market

Here at The Market, we like to keep things as local as possible.  We’re always looking for new Michigan products to line our shelves with. We have a few different sparkling juices on hand, but the St. Julian Winery in Paw Paw, Michigan makes some of our favorites.  Having earned a laundry list of awards in both national and international competitions, it’s safe to say that they know what they’re doing.  St. Julian makes many different variations of their non-alcoholic juices.  Right now, we have a wide selection of their Sparkling products: Red Grape Juice, Raspberry Spumante, Wild Berry Spumante, White Grape Juice, and Pomegranate Blueberry Juice.

The Healthy Watermelon

June 22, 2012 - Posted by Steve Lofman in Western Market

The warmer it gets outside, the less we tend to crave heavier, rich foods, and our palates shift to a yearning for lighter, less salty cuisine.  What better way to satisfy this seasonal desire for lighter foods than to eat healthy, whole, natural items that also keep us hydrated?  Watermelon is absolutely a summer cuisine staple- with its sweet watery flavor and subtle crunchy texture, it’s the perfect snack or even ingredient within a larger culinary project.  There’s no better time than summer to indulge, as it’s peak watermelon season.

Blueberries: The Healthy SuperFruit

March 28, 2012 - Posted by Steve Lofman in Western Market

Blueberries are quite the healthy superfood.  With only 80 calories per cup and virtually no fat, this little round blue fruit is a healthy addition to any salad, dessert or snack.  Blueberries are packed with vitamin C, which aids the formation of collagen and helps maintain healthy gums and capillaries.  It also promotes iron absorption and a healthy immune system.
