I tried Brodo bone broth and it completely changed my mind about bone broth

Rethinking bone broth flavor

Brodo Bone Broth

Since I switched to a low-carb diet in 2017, I’ve tried bone broth several times with the hopes of falling in love. I’ve heard about the health benefits of bone broth for quite some time, but I could never seem to overcome the taste. As a big foodie, I need to enjoy the flavor of something if I consume it regularly. Bone broth is a liquid made of boiled animal bones; I don’t blame you if it isn’t exactly appealing. I’m glad I was open-minded enough to try Brodo Bone Broth, as it has completely changed my mind about what bone broth can taste like.

Tagged “the best bone broth on the planet” by the brand itself; I wholeheartedly agree. If you’ve failed to incorporate bone broth into your diet, here’s why you should reconsider trying bone broth again again.

About Brodo Bone Broth

Bone broth has been around for centuries, but only in the 20th century was it first industrialized. Brodo’s bone broth focuses on the traditional way of making bone broth, with real bones from real animals on real pastures.” Now, there’s a lot to love about this brand. First, they only source bones from cooperatives and family farms that raise animals without antibiotics or hormones. The brand also promises no concentrates, no preservatives, and no shortcuts.

There’s no doubt all of these health-conscious attributes are important. But for me, its taste sets Brodo apart from other health-focused bone broth brands. Again, it needs to be pretty tasty if I make it part of my health routine.

The taste difference

Instead of just straight animal bones, Brodo uses whole-cut organic vegetables to add a better flavor to its bone broths. Additionally, the long-simmering process creates a more flavorful and intense bone broth taste than traditional store-bought bone broths. Drinking Brodo’s bone broth is not just tolerable; it’s enjoyable.

Another thing that sets the brand apart for me is the flavor selection. You can find a great mix of the classics with unique savory and flavored options. Some classic options include the Roasted Organic Chicken Broth and Hearth Bone Broth, which features a mix of beef, chicken, and turkey bones. However, my favorites are the unique flavors, such as the Spicy Nonna Roasted Garlic & Chili Broth or the Deeply Rooted Ginger & Turmeric. The added flavor of the spices used in these flavors brings the drinking experience to the next level.

I’ve recently discovered there are more ways to use Bone broth than I first thought. As delicious as it is just warmed up in a cup, these broths are also great for use as a base in soups and stews or to keep meats moist during cooking.

Bardstown Bourbon Company

If you’re anything like me, you love a good rum-based, tropical cocktail. There’s nothing quite like a Mai Tai or Rum Punch on a hot, humid summer day. Especially if you’re floating on or sitting near a large body of water. But you don’t always want a rum-centered drink, and whiskey just doesn’t have the tropical flair of its sugarcane-based cousin. That all changes now, because Bardstown Bourbon Company just released a whiskey that’s the best of both booze-soaked worlds: Victoria Pineapple Barrel Finish Whiskey.

I declare this the summer of rum: Drinking rum the right way with an expert
Alcohol, Beverage, Liquor

Look, I am a movie buff. Everything I ever learned about life I learned from or sparked an interest in a movie. So, when it comes to rum, my first impression of the drink came from watching Jack Sparrow drink it on a beach. Now, as I travel all over the Carribean, I have discovered that there is, in fact, an entire culture surrounding the consumption of this versatile liquor. Of course, I don’t just take movies at their word, and I dive deep into a subject to find out more about it once my interest is piqued. When it came to rum, I reached out to my friends over at Blue Chair Bay Rum and asked why I am seeing rum everywhere in the summer of 2026. So, why is rum the liquor of the summer?

Rum has an authentic connection to summer because it reflects the easygoing spirit of warm weather entertaining. Inspired by the relaxed spirit of the Caribbean, Blue Chair Bay Rum was co-founded by award-winning singer-songwriter Kenny Chesney, whose deep connection to the islands comes from years spent traveling, performing, and unwinding along their shores. He wanted to capture that feeling with a premium rum that is approachable and full of flavor while embodying effortless joy amongst friends. — Anthony Moniello, Chief Executive Officer of Next Century Spirits
