Gina Daly, author of the Daily Dish, joined Brendan O'Connor on RTÉ Radio 1 to share her 'no fuss' picnic recipes.
Ingredients
This is a super refreshing drink and the kids will love it too. I pop my bottle of sparkling water in the freezer until it is super cold and starting to ice so it will still be chilled if you are packing up a picnic and heading out for the day.
- 1 large bottle sparkling water
- Lime cordial
- 2-3 limes for squeezing
- 1 for garnish
- Large bunch of fresh mint leaves
- Ice cubes
Method
- In a large jug pop in some ice, a handful of mint leaves, the juice of 2 limes, 100mls of lime cordial, then pour in the sparkling water
- Slice up the other lime and pop it into the jug also
- Give it a good stir to incorporate all the flavours and serve. Summer perfect refreshment
- and for the grown ups you can add a tipple of rum for a mojito vibe
