Robinsons Strawberry, Cucumber and Mint Cordial (Sainsbury's) By @Cinabar


In some parallel quantum universe the world is mundanely heading into summer and with that Wimbledon. Summer sunshine, tennis at Wimbledon and of course a nice fruity drink with side helping of strawberries and cream. Well there might not be Wimbledon this year, and we may be some way off gathering for sporting events but this is drink was meant for the tennis, and it sounds remarkably British. Robinsons Strawberry, Cucumber and Mint Cordial. Cucumber sandwich on the side anyone?
I always get confused with cordials on how much to put in, somewhere between a regular version, a double strength and those squeezy bottles it become quite difficult to judge, I went on the generous side with this and that seemed to work. The flavour is so wonderfully summery, the mint makes it taste like a refreshing mocktail. I have a sweet tooth so loved the strawberry flavour, and the cucumber adds a nice cooling tang. If you have guest over for a social distance barbecue this is lovely drink to offer as a non alcoholic alternative. Add a sprig of mint, some ice cubes and a cute paper umbrella, summer here we come. Socially distanced of course, and re-runs of Wimbledon past on the telly.
