Rhubarb And Raspberry Recipes Five Mouth-Watering Rhubarb And Raspberry Recipes

Bake Your Rhubarb And Raspberries: Place the raspberries and chopped rhubarb into a roasting tray and cover with 150g of caster sugar, then add lemon rind and lemon juice. Unsurprisingly, this gin is very heavy on the cardamom, which gives it an incredibly deep and aromatic flavour. Make Your Whipped Cream: Pour the heavy cream into a bowl and whip using beaters until soft peaks form. I make this every year, but use Duty free gin purchased on the flight home, 47+% and considerably cheaper than the budget gin from the supermarket. This is one to enjoy with a crisp, aromatic tonic and a big slice of fresh grapefruit, although it would also work well as the base of a fruity gin cocktail.

This variety uses whole pineapples, which are spit-roasted with demerara sugar to give them a caramelised coating. Not only is it vegan, not tested on animals, packaged in a recyclable bottle and made using 100% renewable energy, but it is formulated with 100% natural fragrances and 4 essential oils too. Gins were tasted with plain tonic and then with lemonade to judge how well they tasted with different mixers.

You will find me spending most of my days either recipe testing in the kitchen, photographing food in my living room, or out in the garden. This will last for up to 12 months in a cool dark place, though over time the deep pink colour will fade. Vividly pink and perfectly perfumed with fresh raspberries this has to be the best raspberry gin recipe out there.

We promised to keep you twinkling from head to toe this December, so we obviously had to include a refreshing and reinvigorating shower gel in our ‘ Merry Metallics’ GLOSSYBOX. The tangy, sweet plum notes combine with an aromatic Madagascan vanilla flavour, alongside orange peel, lemongrass, mulberry, lavender and pine buds. There’s no right or wrong way to drink gin – there’s plenty of options depending on your personal preference.
