Sugar to taste - I used about a tablespoonful


Whizz all together in blender. Sieve and press all pulp to squeeze out liquid.

Very refreshing

Did side by side test on pimms vs sipsmit yesterday. 1pt summer cup/pimms, 1pt ginger beer, 2pts lemonade. Splash of apple juice, small squeeze of lime. Chopped strawberries, melon, watermelon and mint.


No outright winner, Pimms is the taste of the summer, but that sipsmiths summer cup is pretty compelling stuff.

Just to lower the tone... frozen beergarita:


Flesh of 1 lime

Half a can of lager

2 measures tequila

1 measure Cointreau

A glug of sprite


Put in blender, then freeze. The alchohol content will prevent it from completely solidifying.


Mash it up with a fork, and shake it up with a little water (or more sprite, or beer). Makes two glasses.

    • Holding noisy disruptive events in the middle of the public examinations period - GCSE's and A Levels - is not helpful for local children who will likely be stressed already. 
    • It's a great suggestion to contact other companies and perhaps get a better quote.   Fancy implying that ONLY those with direct, specific and qualified opinions can post. That would change the entire EDF - with very little responses to any post. You can search online for reviews of secondary glazing and see what customers have said (Trustpilot)
    • That's a great solution, but not really practical for a second floor windowsill! I tried many things, spiky wires sticking out to deter them from landing, the widest cage available (pictured), but they would still descend, scaring off all the small songbirds, cram their heads through the cage and devour all the food. I was metaphorically tearing my hair out so, combined with the worries about spreading disease, I had to call it a day. Very sad.
    • Plus it is pure hypocrisy from the council, who pontificate about cleaner, greener, spaces, but then throw that out of the window for a bit of cash from a disruptive event.  I will raise this with them. I will point out to them that whether their event takes place or not is of as little consequence too 😉 Because they are public servants paid for by our taxes. It's the whole reason FOI exists. We have a right to know certain things.
