Try our latest flavours of the month and experience a range of new products with a real taste difference. SOUTH is always on the lookout for new products to tantalise the tastebuds of our readers.
A SL AB OFF THE OLD BLOCK If recent events have taught us anything it’s that nothing is set in stone. Classics, however, are always admired by those with good... taste. Creamy on the outside, smooth and nutty within, Cadbury Dairy Milk Marble was a popular treat when first released years ago and now it’s making a comeback, available from supermarkets nationwide – RRP $3.60 per block.
JASBERRY – NO PL AIN GRAIN Fortifying our immune systems is crucial to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, a fact that’s never been more poignant than in recent months. Thankfully, superfoods are especially well suited to performing this role. With 40 times higher antioxidant levels than brown rice, seven times that of kale, four times more than quinoa and almost three times more antioxidants than in blueberries, Jasberry organic rice is no plain grain!
HO LY BR EW JO L AI S, MA C’S BA CK ! If (as some wag put it) Paul Henry returning to New Zealand was the final sign of the apocalypse, surely Mac’s re-releasing a favourite brew is a sure sign that normality may yet resume. Unavailable since the Christchurch earthquakes, Mac’s Brewjolais is (at long last!) back on supermarket and bottle store shelves, or via littlecreatures.co.nz – RRP $7.99 per 440ml can. The exact flavours of this unfiltered beer vary due to the hops used for each edition; this year’s brew (ABV 6%) is dry with notes of tropical fruits, nectarine and mandarin zest.

Developed through natural-cross-breeding, this variety of rice also features anthocyanins, which give blueberries their colour. Soft with a deep aromatic flavour, this superfood is ideal in almost any rice-based dish, especially Asian style foods. Jasberry Rice is available (RRP $10.49 per 500g pack) from Huckleberry, Farro Fresh and participating supermarkets nationwide.
LO G O N ! Whether as a quick bite when logging on at the computer or as a delectable snack when tuning in and dropping out in front of the telly, Tasti’s White Choc & Raspberry Snak Logs make for a tasty treat. However, as they’re oven baked and packed with wholesome ingredients – including oats, fruit and seeds – these bars are as well suited to the heath conscious as to lounge lizards. A great addition to a range, which also features three other varieties, White Choc & Raspberry Snak Logs (RRP $4.49) can be found at supermarkets nationwide. south | june 2020 | 25
