Whether it’s something cool and fizzy on a summer’s day, a warm spiced sip in winter, or a nourishing smoothie to start your morning, drinks can be just as thoughtful and seasonal as any meal.
This is where you’ll find a growing collection of beverage recipes, from homemade ginger beer and fruit cordials to smoothies, infused spirits, and the occasional cocktail. Many are inspired by what’s in season, what’s in surplus and what can be turned into something delicious to sip and share.
Making drinks at home is a great way to cut down on waste, avoid excess packaging and reduce added sugars, not to mention make the most of your fruit harvests and herb garden. Some are perfect for preserving and bottling up, while others are best enjoyed fresh from the blender or pot.
Drink recipes are listed in A to Z order. If you’re after something featuring a specific ingredient, such as lemons, berries or mint, use the TAGmenu on the right of the page to filter your options.
Whether you’re blending, bottling or brewing, I hope these recipes inspire you to raise a glass to seasonal, homemade goodness.
