CONSCIOUS MOCKTAILS AND COCKTAILS
No Ugly is delicious straight up – but you can also use it as a much more conscious mixer.
Here’s a few ideas for you:
PLUM & SUMMER FRUIT SANGRIA.
Place 1/4 cup of mixed berries – frozen or seasonal into a wine glass over ice, add 20ml of lime juice, 60ml of red wine and fill to the top with No Ugly Plum. Garnish with a sprig of mint and wedge of lime. Better still – make a big jug to share with friends!
PLUM-FLOWER & POMEGRANATE.
Muddle a Black Doris plum (preserved or fresh) with citrus rind and 10ml of elderflower syrup. Pour into a tall glass, over ice and top up with No Ugly Plum. Garnish with pomegranate seeds and lemon zest. Optional: Single shot of vodka.
CUCUMBER RHUMBA.
Place 20ml of lemon juice, 15ml of elderflower cordial and a few basil leaves in a cocktail shaker with ice and give it a good shake. Pour into a tall glass and top up with No Ugly Cucumber. Garnish with cucumber wedges & basil. Optional: Single shot of gin.
GINGER NINJA.
Place 20ml of lemon juice, 5ml of honey syrup and 5ml of ginger juice in a cocktail shaker with ice and give it a good shake. Pour into a wide– mouthed glass and top up with No Ugly Ginger. Serve with crystallised ginger on a cocktail skewer. Optional: Single shot of gin.
SPICY CUCUMBER CHICA.
Place 15ml of lime juice, a sprig of coriander and a few chilli flakes in a cocktail shaker with ice and give it a good shake. Pour into a tall glass and top up with No Ugly Cucumber. Garnish with a sliver of chilli, a slice of cucumber and a sprig of coriander. Optional: Single shot of vodka.
