Drinks

I realise that this post will probably be quite divisive as you either love it or you don’t right? But did you know that licorice is thought to help with coughs and colds? So perhaps even if you aren’t an adamant licorice lover, this recipe might be worth a try! The…

Boozy popsicles you say?! Yes indeedy! I have managed to squeeze a favourite summer tipple into ice block form just for you. These refreshing popsicles are perfect for barbecues, brunch parties or weddings!

Gin is a fantastic tipple on it’s own, but when you add these complimentary botanicals, it’s lifted to another level. I like to have it with tonic water, grapefruit slices and ice so you can really taste the flavours but it would also be great with lemonade. Pink grapefruit, cucumber and lemon…

So infused rum sounds fancy doesn’t it? It’s sure to wow the pants off your party guests when you tell them you flavoured your own tipple! Plus this tropical-infused booze is really easy to make, you just need to start a week ahead of time. And of course you can then…

People keep asking me what I was craving while pregnant and I’m not totally sure but I definitely had an increased appetite for sweets, particularly milkshakes. So when I went to a cafe the other day and they had a gingerbread milkshake on the menu, I was intrigued. Of course I…

I realised after I shot this that it looks a lot like soup! But it isn’t, instead it’s a yummy, warming drink that is also good for you! Turmeric, honey and ginger are all natural healers and you can read more about the benefits of turmeric in a previous post here.…
