Sofie’s Rhubarb & Lemon Cordial

April 30

The first thing to pop up in my vegetable patch each year is the rhubarb crop and it’s always a sign that summer is well and truly on it’s way. Sofie and I love to use it in this refreshing rhubarb cordial which is great mixed with soda water and even better in a citrusy summer cocktail!

Thyme Lemonade

September 10

This is a wonderfully refreshing drink that is perfect for dinner parties! If you want to make an alcoholic version add one part good quality rum to the mix. The thyme syrup can be used for cocktails instead of a sugar syrup.
