Lest you think these maple syrups are just for pancakes, think again.
The infused maple syrups with flavors like elderberry, cinnamon + vanilla, merquen chili peppers, cardamom or ginger root can be drizzled on ice cream or pastries, or use them to sweeten tea, amp up vinaigrettes, stir-fry dishes, glazes, or even used in creative cocktail infusions.

There are also Rum, Rye and Bourbon Barrel-Aged syrups, which are a great alternative to, well, rum, rye, or bourbon gifts. If you're still shopping for holiday gifts, I'd take a look at the sweet Runamok maple syrup gift box at an equally sweet price (as far as foodie gifts go) -- or the gift sets of 12 mini bottles. Best of all, if you order soon, you can still make Christmas delivery. Not that I'd say no to getting a bunch of these any time at all. Visit Runamok Maple for artisanal, Vermont-made gourmet maple syrup gifts but hurry! Right now you can get expedited shipping for just $2.95 for 2nd day air to make Christmas delivery. Check out their maple syrup recipes too. Yum!
