Provençal Ham Quiche

April 13, 2022

Celebrate spring with this brunch classic. A chilled glass of Lavender Plum cider pairs beautifully with a slice of this ham quiche.

Why? It's all in the secret ingredient: herbs de Provence.

This blend of herbs from southern France accentuates the ham and cheese combo while doing a ballet with the floral lavender note in our lovely Lavender Plum cider. The seasonal flavours of the cider and this dish will surely get you excited about the warm weather ahead.
