Iced teas Iced fruit or herbal teas are delicious and so versatile! You can have great fun browsing through the varieties offered. Make up a pitcher every day and keep it in the fridge – they’re especially refreshing when you top the glass up with some sparkling water and a block or two of ice. Iced green tea with a slice of orange is also a real treat.

In�sed water The easiest and truly refreshing option is infused water. You don’t need to buy expensive flavoured waters that also come with unwelcome calories and frequently also other additives. You can use any of the following, or experiment with your own combinations to surprise family and friends: • Sliced citrus fruits or zest (lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit) • Crushed fresh mint • Peeled, sliced fresh ginger or sliced cucumber • Crushed berries When you are entertaining, it makes a lasting impression to serve a variety of mocktails in different sized pitchers or punch bowls, garnished and decorated with mint or fresh fruit.
