Stadium Bars take battle Vanilla

Hello Struble Suds patrons. Sorry that this post is a little late today.
Yesterday we had another successful Super Bowl Battle. It was Julie's Orange Bruise vs. Nicole's Stadium Bars. Both used vanilla very well and actually paired well with each other. The Haacks, Finns, Laskowskis, and Strubles were in attendance.
First up was Julie's Orange Bruise. It is a drink made of dark soda (we used Coke), orange vodka and vanilla. A very good combination. Plus, there was a good story with this "bowl" item. Julie learned that you can't send liquor in the mail. No worries, Matt stopped by our local store and we were good to go. Personally, I really liked the Orange Bruise - maybe that's why this post is a little late today.


The second competitor was Nicole and her Stadium Bars. These were made of brownie, popcorn, peanuts and chocolate chips. All of the ingredients were soaked in vanilla. Super yummy. Kevin had a plate to himself.

So by a narrow margin... Nicole was the winner. We'll be sending you the official Struble Suds/Super Bowl competition weekly prize in the next couple of days.

Thanks again to Julie & Nicole. We all were very impressed with your entries. It made the Packer loss a little more tolerable by having your special treats.

And if your in the neighborhood, stop by on Nov 9 for the Second annual Struble Suds Chili cook-off.

I had Julie's drink in the first half, beer in the second half, and wine with dinner. Slow morning.

Cristine... Once again, a nice recap of the Throw Down entries. They both sound yummy!

Competition is heating up. I might actually have to press Richard on the whole Super Bowl trip.

Thanks again for all the effort.
