Cook time: 15 minutes
Makes: 4 Adult portions
Ingredients
3 stalks rhubarb
4 tbsp caster sugar
6-8 blackcurrants
4 lemons
200ml sparkling water
Method
- Cut the rhubarb into small pieces. Rinse off and place in a saucepan, along with the sugar and enough water to cover the bottom of the pan.
- On a low heat with the lid on, stew for 5-10 minutes, until all of the rhubarb breaks down and the sugar dissolves.
- Add in the blackcurrants and leave to stew for a further 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool before passing through a sieve.
- Juice the lemons in a separate bowl.
- Combine the rhubarb mix with the lemon juice, then add some ice and sparkling water to taste, taking care not to dilute it too much!
