We've just discovered our new favourite and extremely refreshing cocktail for the summer: this peach sorbet fizz! It's inspired by a Sgroppino - an Italian drink which usually consists of a scoop of lemon sorbet, topped with fizz and a shot of vodka, but this one is on the more tropical fruit side by using peaches. And not fresh peaches, but a tin of peaches in their juices! This recipe really couldn't be easier.

Jaffa cake fans listen up, there's a new flavour in town and it's jumping on the 'swicy' trend. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, swicy is a mixture of sweet and spicy, with the main trend being hot honey (honey infused with chilli) and it's extremely delicious, especially on some grilled halloumi and blistered cherry tomatoes - but in a Jaffa cake? We're not too sure what to think of it. If you love all things sweet and spicy, this treat might just be what you were missing in your life.

Aldi may not have been first in line to bring out their own version of a Dubai chocolate bar, but the budget retailer has finally announced the imminent arrival of their own version and don't they say good things take time?
