Making Summer Cordials

Cordials, concentrates, syrups and squashes – there’s many names for these sweet and often fruity additions to good old fashioned tap water. In this video we preserve some of our summer harvests into concentrated sugary treats for quenching our thirst (and brightening up our G&Ts) on hot summer days.

We’ll show you how to make four different drinks: a simple orange squash, strawberry lemonade concentrate, watermelon syrup and cucumber and mint cordial.

All this takes place in our new (but still temporary) processing kitchen with some fancy new kitchen equipment. We’ll show you the whole making process and wrap things up with a taste test full of descriptive words at the end.

Stay tuned to see what happens…
