Wilfred’s: An Orange and Rosemary Aperitif

Wilfred’s Aperitif is an artisan aperitif, made without alcohol and free from honey. Natural botanicals are blended with bitter orange, aromatic rosemary, clove and a hint of rhubarb. Created by an engineer after 100 experiments! His site has simple mocktail recipes.

If mixing with tonic waters, know that quinine should be avoided for pregnancy/nursing and some medical conditions (blood thinners, antibiotics, antidepressants and for liver failure). In these cases, mix with soda water instead.

For a sweeter end to your meal, Gibson’s Organic Liqueurs are made in the Cotswolds, and include:

• Elderflower – a floral taste of an English summer
• Blackberry (add a splash to bubbly, or drizzle into vegan ice-cream or crumble)
• Raspberry (add to vegan ice-cream, crumble or trifle)
