Your Guide to a Picture-Perfect Thanksgiving

Fall has officially arrived, and as the cool weather rolls in, you can almost smell the Thanksgiving turkey roasting.

From recipes for groups of all sizes, to your Thanksgiving playlist and tips and tricks to bringing the perfect turkey to your table, we’ve got you covered. 

From Pumpkin Spice Turkey to Maple Cider Brined Turkey, we’re here to help you bring the flavours of the season to your Thanksgiving gathering. 

THANKSGIVING HAS A SONG

Thanksgiving is one of the sweetest holidays, which is why Alex Bird, a JUNO-nominated jazz artist, thought it was about time it had its own holiday song! We teamed up with Alex and The Jazz Mavericks to create Canada’s first great Thanksgiving tune – “The Sweetest Moments”. The heartwarming track perfectly captures the unique essence of a Canadian Thanksgiving – the sounds, the sights, the smells, the faces, and of course the turkey.

Get in the Thanksgiving spirit by adding “The Sweetest Moments” to your holiday playlist on Spotify and Apple Music!

GIVEAWAY

To make your fall even sweeter, we’re giving away a grocery gift card worth $200 to three lucky fans to buy the turkey and all the fixings you’ll need to celebrate! Check out the details below.
