Creating and tasting a potpourri of liquid delights well into the night, the first day was a dismal failure. But refreshed and inspired by further overnight snow, these two mixologists achieved success on January 15th. Now Lancaster Lemonade has a faithful following in the Northern Neck and our guests are introducing it to communities across the globe. The balancing of ingredients is an art which is still being refined to this day. Here is our recipe: 1 Part Vodka 1 Part Limoncello Juice of 1/2 Lemon Add fresh Lemon Wheels and Ice Fill with Ginger Ale Garnish with Lemon Balm and a Lemon Wedge 8 tidesinn.com 804-438-5000 Plated Package Menus Rappahannock Package One Hour Resort Open Bar Cocktail Reception Four Passed Hors d’Oeuvres & Imported Cheese Display Premium Wine Service with Dinner & Traditional Sparkling Wine Toast Two-Course Plated Dinner with Dinner Rolls & Butter Three Hour Resort Open Bar Coffee & Tea Service Carters Creek Package One Hour Resort Open Bar Cocktail Reception Three Passed Hors d’Oeuvres Premium Wine Service with Dinner & Traditional Sparkling Wine Toast Two-Course Plated Dinner with Dinner Rolls & Butter Three Hour Resort Open Bar Coffee & Tea Service Wedding Packages & Information 9 Plated Package Menus Hors d’Oeuvres Please Select According to Selected Package Spinach & Feta Spanakopita Seared Ahi Tuna | Wasabi Caviar | English Cucumber Fresh Berry & Goat Cheese Tartlet Vegetarian Spring Rolls | Asian Plum Sauce Portobello Bruschetta | Balsamic Syrup Charred Beef Tenderloin Crostini | Horseradish Chive Cream Bleu Cheese, Toasted Walnuts & Drizzled Honey in Endive Coconut Shrimp | Tonga Sauce Chicken Salad in Phyllo Cup Artichoke Fritters | Herb Cheese Scallop Wrapped in Bacon Prosciutto, Tomato & Fresh Mozzarella Skewers Crabmeat Tartlet Mini Chesapeake Bay Crab Cake House Smoked Duck Breast | Sweet Potato Biscuit with Mango Chutney Fried Rappahannock River Oysters Tarragon Crab Salad in an Endive Leaf Farmer Clark’s Asparagus Prosciutto Canapé | Red Pepper Goat Cheese Displays Red Pepper Hummus | Herbed Buttermilk Ranch Dressing, Fresh Vegetables, Pita Triangles & Bagel Chips Honey Almond Baked Brie | Raspberry Coulis & French Baguettes Sliced Smoked Salmon | Pumpernickel Bread, Red Onions, Egg Whites, Capers & Cucumber Dill Sauce Hot Artichoke, Spinach, & Crab Fondue | Lavash, Bagel Chips, Pita Triangles & French Baguettes Northern Neck Antipasti Display | Sliced Tomatoes, Fresh Mozzarella, Grilled Asparagus, Roasted Peppers, Marinated Artichoke Hearts, Kalamata Olives, Herbed Feta Cheese & Smoked Local Seafood 10 tidesinn.com 804-438-5000 Plated Package Menus Starters Please Select One Mixed Baby Greens Salad | Cucumbers, Croutons & Herb-Balsamic Vinaigrette Spinach Salad | Sliced Mushrooms, Blue Cheese, Red Onions, Pine Nuts & Raspberry Mint Vinaigrette Chesapeake Wedge Salad | Blue Cheese, Applewood Bacon & Local Tomatoes | Baby Iceberg Lettuce Asparagus, Tomato & Mozzarella Caprese Salad | Basil Pesto Vinaigrette Fresh Melon, Smithfield Ham, & Sliced Brie | Westmoreland Berry Farm Preserves Carters Creek She-Crab Soup Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Bisque Mushroom Bisque Carter Mountain Apple Bisque Entrées Please Select One Tides Inn Crab Cakes | Fresh Herb Beurre Blanc Roast Prime Rib of Beef | Wild Mushroom Ragout Maple Glazed Pork Tenderloin | Sweet Potato & Surry Sausage Hash Roasted Chicken | Spinach, Fontina & Artichokes | Garden Herb Cream Grilled Filet of Atlantic Salmon | Pesto Beurre Blanc Pan-Seared Coastal Mahi Mahi | Ginger Lime Beurre Blanc New York Strip Steak | Herb Butter Skillet Seared Breast of Chicken Norfolk | Lump Crab, Country Ham & Garlic Butter Sauce Medallions of Roasted Black Angus Beef Tenderloin | Cabernet Reduction Specialty Duo Entrées Roasted Black Angus Beef Tenderloin Medallions & Crab Stuffed Shrimp Cabernet Reduction | Chive Butter Sauce Roasted Black Angus Beef Tenderloin Medallions & Chesapeake Bay Crab Cake Cabernet Reduction | Dijon Mustard Cream Sauce Chicken Scaloppini & Grilled Salmon Wild Mushroom Fricassee | Tarragon Cream | Cheesy Grits Wedding Packages & Information 11 Action Station Package Menus A Menu That Keeps the Party Moving!
