Super Natural

The biggest debate among wine drinkers is no longer red or

white: It’s natural versus...everything else. Natural wines are

typically made from organic grapes using minimal technology,

and the wines are unfiltered, with few if any additives.

This often gives the wines a cloudy look and a funky, earthy

taste. Many sommeliers are big fans, and their obsession is

trickling down to trendy bars, restaurants and shops.

Restaurants will start

companies are betting on our next

plant-based obsession: imitation

seafood. Look for imposters from

these new brands in grocery stores.

LOVING THE LASSI

Mango lassi-a chilled yogurt

drink from India-was introduced

thousands of years ago, but it has

found a new audience here thanks to

a growing interest in Indian flavors:

The data firm Mintel reports that

there has been a 93 percent increase

in the use of cardamom, a prominent

Indian spice and a common lassi

ingredient, in restaurants over the

last three years. The lassi trend

has expanded to include beer, too:
