Welcome, sunshine!
Our summer list to keep cool and make the most of the long days…
1. Discover cooling herbs
Fragrant, refreshing and diverse: these herbs cool you from the inside
2. Thirst quenchers for hot days
How about making homemade iced tea? Delicious, varied and refreshing… Here is our basic recipe for creating iced tea yourself. Before you start: make sure you have ice cubes.
Homemade Ice Tea Recipe
Extra: Ice cube art
Instead of just freezing water, add some lemon juice, fresh peppermint leaves or one berry per ice cube – it’s fun, looks great and your drink will taste even better
3. Summertime is picnic time
What’s nicer than relaxing outside in the park, in the forest, or on the meadow with friends and good food? And there might just be time for a game of Jass ;-).
Picnic Packing List:
- Sweet and salty foods that are easy to transport: salads, sandwiches, quiches, snacks, muffins, or sheet cakes.
- Drinks: besides water/iced tea, a good bottle of wine, or beer, is a must.
- A picnic basket, hamper, tote, cooler, or backpack
- A picnic blanket
- Plates, glasses, utensils and napkins
- Corkscrew or bottle opener
- Cutting board and knife
- Ice packs or thermos
- Trash bags
- Paper towels or wipes
- Atmosphere: if you want to make it extra romantic, bring along flowers, candles, and a lighter 😉
4. Chin-chin! Cheers! Prost!
Cocktails that brighten up glasses and thoughts taste better than ever in summer.
Lillet Vive Recipe
The Lillet Blanc, a French wine aperitif, is a fruity, refreshing classic. And cucumbers in a jar are not only available from Grandma, but also in our summer drink. Thanks to cucumbers’ ability to store cold, they are a particularly popular addition to cocktails.
Shopping List:• 5 cl Lillet Blanc
• 10 cl tonic water
• Ice cubes
• 1 slice of cucumber
• 2 stalks of mint
• 1 strawberry, halved
That's how it's done:
Fill half of a large wine glass with ice cubes and add the cucumber slice, mint and the halved strawberry. Top up with 5 cl Lillet Blanc and 10 cl tonic water. Finished!
