Simply so, what drink goes good with crab legs?
Sure, a big, buttery Chardonnay goes with freshcracked crab, but Pinot Gris and dry Riesling also have arich mouth-feel and often more vibrant layers of fruit. Pour a Grisif the crab is cold (and has a lemony aioli on the side),and a Riesling if it's warm (with clarified butter).
Crabs are considered delicate in taste andtexture so heavy dark liquor like bourbon or dark rum mightdrown out the flavor depending on how the crabs areprepared. The Lemon Drop, Tom Collins, or standard Gin and Tonicgoes nicely with steamed Alaskan King crab servedwith melted butter.
