‘Bloody Good’ Drink

October 25, 2010 By Delia

A sophisticated drink, very refreshing and soothing. The rich taste of blood orange makes this drink a lot more explosive flavour wise rather than what you’d think. The combinations of flavours and textures in the Orange juice, Strawberries and Raspberries can be further enhanced and altered by using some of the pulp from the Oranges – either added in before or after the blending.

250ml Blood/Ruby Orange Juice
100g Strawberries
100g Raspberries
50ml Sparkling Water

1. Put all of the ingredients into a blender, and process until smooth
2. Sieve the mixture to remove any pips if you prefer

3. Serve in a straight glass, poured over Ice.

Bowl of Raspberries

August 5, 2009 By Lorraine

I’ve posted previously about my love for strawberries, but my second favorite berry and berry flavor, has got to be raspberry. A bowl of fresh and tangy, sweet, refreshing, juicy raspberries- is there anything better?

Turns out, there’s a large number of raspberry recipes online- from raspberry sherbet, to raspberry pie, to this ridiculously easy-to-assemble Raspberry Chocolate Torte (which I’ve tried, and which is awesome, by the way). There’s even raspberry vinaigrette, which, I’m sorry, looks so much like a pitcher of delicious raspberry juice in the photo, I want to down a glass right now.

Still, the best way I like my raspberries is fresh and plain. No sugar, no cream, just a bowl of plain deliciousness, thank you very much. I like to wash them quickly in very cold water, and serve them immediately. They’re packed full of good things like antioxidants, vitamins b and c, and lots of fiber (which means I can enjoy them without breaking my low-carb diet). It’s foods like these, perfect from nature, that really make me smile.
