‘The Report Buster’ – this cocktail is for all you teachers! …. and any sympathisers who just love a tasty drink!

All over the world at the moment there are teachers writing reports….. writing reports….. writing reports….writing reports. It is fantastic to be able to convey the amount of progress that your students have made in a year, but sit at a computer for a couple of hours a night (after a full day of teaching) writing, writing, writing and you’ll need a drink! So this one’s for the teachers! It is a healthy cocktail because of the fresh fruit, to help our our bodies and brains and a little alcohol to ease the day away! I also used my new Norfolk Cordial – but you could use lime cordial or elderflower cordial.

Sip your reports away!

The Report Buster

1 banana
1 cup strawberries
2 cups Tropicana Tropical Juice
Splash Norfolk cordial Red Gooseberry and Wild Elderflower
100ml White rum

Nice and easy…. Bung all in a blender and whizz up – pour over ice into a tall glass – garnish with a strawberry pushed down onto the rim

A ‘good’ cocktail for Good Friday!

Had the most amazing cocktail at our hotel in Tunisia on holiday – called the ‘Riu Palace’…. tried to recreate it and think I did an awesome job actually, especially considering I had no quantities…

Anyway whether you have spent the day entertaining the children, we have been for a bluebell walk and to the beach, or just chillin’ you deserve a great cocktail once the sun is past the yard-arm and this one is full of vitamins!!

Fee’s take on the ‘Riu Palace’ cocktail – Tall glass or hurricane glass

Double of vodka, shot of Creme de Bananes, shot of cherry brandy

Top up with 300ml of a mixture of pineapple and orange juices (or… pineapple and ‘tropical juice’)  and splash of lime juice to taste

Shake in a cocktail shaker and pour over ice, garnish with a slice of orange….
