#fresh lime

This simple Rum and Lime Pineapple recipe beautifully enhances the juicy, sweet flesh of the fruit, making it a lovely dessert to end a meal! It may tastes even better if you're having it with a side of telly series set in the Caribbeans!

Ingredients (1 pineapple):

1 medium, ripe pineapple

a small lime

4 tablespoons Ginger and Lime Rum 

Peel and cut pineapple into thick slices. Remove the hard core of the pineapple slices with an apple corer.

Arrange pineapple slices onto serving plate. Generously grate the zest of the whole lime all over. Drizzle pineapple slices with Ginger and Lime Rum.

Chill, at least a couple of hours, in the refrigerator.

Sometimes all you need to make a painting pop is to add a touch of these vibrant paints by Dylusions and my favourite inks by Daler Rowney. 

The Greyhound is a very simple, but delightful little cocktail, especially if you're, like me, rather keen on gin! If you order it at a bar, you might want to specify you want gin though, and not vodka (unless you do want vodka), as it is often made with the latter, too! But the original version, the one created by Harry Craddock , mixologist extraordinaire, at The Savoy in the 1930s, was made with gin as the poison! This, and freshly squeezed grapefruit juice, give it a nice kick, and a little shot of Vitamin C alongside the spirit, and when it rains ceaselessly outside, both are welcome! Happy Friday!

Ingredients (serves 1):

6 ice cubes

45 millilitres/1 1/2 fluid ounces good quality London Dry Gin

1/2 ripe pink grapefruit

1 lime wheel

Fill a rocks glass with ice cubes.

Pour Gin over the ice.

Thoroughly squeeze the juice of the grapefruit halve, and strain into the glass.

Give a gentle stir with a spoon. Garnish with lime wheel.
