Caribou (drink)

Canada portal Caribou is a sweet French-Canadian alcoholic beverage composed of red wine and a spirit (usually rye whisky) (mixed 3 parts to 1), and maple syrup or sugar.

[1][2][3] Caribou can be made at home but is now available as a premixed beverage by the Société des alcools du Québec.

It can be consumed hot or cold depending on the weather and served with citrus and cinnamon in the manner of mulled wine.

[5] In recent years, it has also been served in celebration on the National holiday of Quebec.

It is also a staple of the Festival du Voyageur in Winnipeg, Manitoba,[6] where it is sometimes served in glasses made out of ice.
