McCormick has again peered into the crystal ball to uncover the hottest new food and beverage trends, and according to its Flavour Forecast 2015, the future looks smoky and sour - and classic cookies and milk get a modern makeover.

McCormick, which makes a range of herbs, spices and recipe bases, says its annual Flavour Forecast is a catalyst for innovation within the broader food industry, with past reports helping to move once unfamiliar ingredients and trends into mainstream popularity.

This year the company has grouped its flavour forecasts under eight headings: Sour & Salt; Liquid Revolution; Global Blends on the Move; Umami Veggies; Cookies Reimagined; Smoked Spices; Middle Eastern Mezze; and Flavour Worth the Wait.

Watch below for a snapshot of these eight key flavour trends.
