A winter's day in the woods

Winter weekend adventures
Looking for something to do this weekend? How about a stroll through the local woodlands? Pack a satchel, grab a friend and do some exploring!

What to take:
- a friend to explore with
- walking boots (some worn in Doc's are perfect if you have some)
- camera
- thermos filled with whatever takes your fancy (coffee, green tea, etc...)
- packed lunch (make it easy for yourself - some fresh crusty bread with hummus and last night's roasted vegetables & a couple of apples should keep you going)
- umbrella (just in case)
- a winter coat (because your mother would have made you take one)

Mint Julep cocktail hour

Here in the Southern Seas we are enjoying the arrival of spring. Not too far in the distant future will be sunshine and sand, camping sojourns, catching up with old friends over the long summer break and cooling down with tasty cocktails.



The classic Mint Julep is my fave adults only summer beverage. In anticipation of those hot summer nights, here is one way to whip one up:

Mint Julep with a twist

90 ml bourbon whiskey
6 fresh mint leaves
Caster sugar to taste
A dash of fresh finely grated orange rind
Ice (crushed)

Muddle mint, sugar & orange rind with a splash of the bourbon in a mixing glass. Leave to stand for a few minutes to let the flavours infuse.
Strain the ingredients into a highball glass (or a short whisky glass if you prefer). Swish the contents around to coat all sides of the glass. Fill with crushed ice and then pour the remaining bourbon over the ice. Decorate with a sprig of mint and a pretty paper straw.

For my friends in colder climates, don't let the cooler air stop you from enjoying this classic drink! Just add a dash of cinnamon & fresh cardamom to spice it up for a winter twist.

Best enjoyed with good company and some smooth tunes (Etta James / Frank Ocean /Jill Scott / etc).

1. Mint Julep knitted wool beanie, grey with mint and teal stripes /
2. Pick & Mix Mint Julep fingerless mittens - set of three mittens to mix and match as you please /
