A Tipple for Christmas - The Summerton Club

When it comes to Christmas gifts for adults, I don't think you can go wrong with an alcoholic drink, I mean we all like a good tipple over the festive period don't we! And this is where The Summerton Club can help.

Gin, Lime and White Chocolate Cheesecake Recipe

There are two things in life that I really quite like, food and alcohol so what could be better than combining the two? The guys over at 31Dover.com recently sent a rather delicious bottle of gin and I thought rather than just doing a quickie review to let you all know just how refreshing a G&T it can make, I'd go the extra mile and get a little creative and that's when I came up with the idea for the gin, lime and white chocolate cheesecake.

Now I'm no master baker so the good news with this recipe is that it is there aren't a lot of ingredients, it is super easy to prepare and it requires no baking whatsoever, the only downside is that you need to wait for it to set bbboooooo. Now considering the alcohol content this isn't a dessert for the kiddies, oh no, this one is just for us adults and guess what it's jolly nice when enjoyed with a refreshing glass of gin and tonic accompanying it....

Celebrating Easter With a Cocktail

Spring is definitely coming and Easter is also on it's way so what better way to celebrate than with a tasty cocktail. I mean a good alcoholic drink to accompany all of the chocolate you are going to consume sounds good doesn't it? And we all know that calories don't count during the holidays so you've got no worries there ;)

Sampling Aldi's Exquisite Wine

Wine is up there with my favourite things. It is a parenting essential just like coffee in my eyes. A friend to hold my hand after a long, tough day. And I don't discriminate, I like red, white and rose, we can all be mates, there's no need to fight over me. So when Aldi emailed asking if I'd like to sample some of their Exquisite wine range there was no possible way that I could say no.

Now I can say without a doubt that their wine is good quality and even better, a bargain price, who needs £100 bottles of plonk when you can spend less than £7 on a good bottle of red and enjoy just as much if not more.

There are three bottles of wine in this fantastic range which are detailed below :

The Exquisite Collection Limestone Coast Cabernet - £6.49 (75cl)

Bring some Aussie sunshine to a Wednesday evening with a glass of the Exquisite Collection Limestone Coast Cabernet. With intense flavours of juicy blackcurrant, cherries, eucalyptus and mocha notes, try pairing it with a warming winter meal such as steak or duck.

The Exquisite Collection Gavi - £5.49 (75cl)

Produced from the Cortese grapes grown around the town of Gavi in the outstanding Piemonte wine region, the Exquisite Collection Gavi is refreshing and aromatic boasting flavours of tangy lemon, weighty fruit and subtle waxy nuttiness. Enjoy a glass of this Italian white wine alongside antipasti, creamy pasta sauces or risotto.
