A week ago on
Sunday I declared the upcoming week to a tomato themed week on my
blog. I have utterly enjoyed eating tomatoes, cooking tomatoes and
even drinking tomatoes (the drinking part comes today in the form of
a tomato cordial cocktail) during The VegHog's Tomato Festival,
and of course writing about the recipes and taking photos. I hope
that you have also liked my posts during this week. I must say that
I'm still not sick of tomatoes at the end of this, amazing!
So, now to the
final tomato post in this series. This unusual cocktail idea was
inspired by the vibrant tomato cordial made by The Tomato Stall,
which I recently purchased. The products from The Tomato Stall have
come up a few times during the week, but it's just because I happen
to like them. This is not a collaboration in any way.
I used these
ingredients for my cocktail:
Tomato cordial
Sparkling water
Gin
Fresh basil
Tomatoes
I more or less
poured the ingredients into a jug based on a gut feeling. The end
result was very tasty and interesting. It was very refreshing and
perfect for a summer's day.
Have fun!
Your VegHog
