The drink is one of the most popular street drinks in North India and is very effective in instantly hydrating the body and providing respite from the summer heat. She's fought tooth and nail to not have any modernisation or things like that. She's a very proud Irish lady and her word goes! Kingly Street’s Kolamba is the inaugural project for both restaurateurs Aushi and Eroshan Meewella and London-based interior designer Fare Inc. And what a debut! Natural textures, neutral palettes and a unifying terrazzo design are used to pay homage to the “tropical modernism” movement of Sri Lankan architect Geoffrey Bawa. Elsewhere, linen-piped leather banquettes, woven pendants and bespoke batik artworks add a softness to rustic sawn-wood screens and polished concrete walls. “The space feels fresh and authentic, much like the dishes leaving the kitchen,” says Dylan Jones. To dine at Kolamba is to segue through the sun-soaked spice markets of Sri Lanka, to savour Sinhalese flavours heady with coconut, cardamom and lemongrass. Surrounded by tropical greenery, Ginger & Peppercorn Mule in hand, you’d be forgiven for forgetting you’re still in Soho. For the most part, I could float on top of the waves of temptation during our island stay. Each morning I woke up early and walked on the beach, relishing the solitude and my beachcombing finds. If a few in our group opted to go to a bar for a beer after dinner, I didn’t object but I didn’t join them. I didn’t feel left out or slighted. One night we all decided to go out dancing, and I didn’t need a beer or shot to do so. Sobriety was enhancing my connection to my friends. There was no shortage of laughter or fun or inappropriate banter and the support my friends gave me aided my resolve. Typical Ingredients: Lemon juice, Sugar syrup, Carbonated Water, Roasted Cumin, Coriander, Salt, Pepper
Our judges were astounded by Lastra’s latest venture. “His passion for provenance and limitless creativity is inspiring,” says Spencer. “Eating here is an education – Lastra’s cooking tells a story of regionality that reaches well beyond tacos and tortillas,” adds Bhogal.There are two versions of Feni, one made from fermented coconut and the other from fermented cashew fruit. A hot cup of Kahwa flavoured with cinnamon, cardamom, saffron, cloves garnished with rose petals, sliced almonds, and other dry fruit will keep you warm on a cold day.
Cashew Feni is popular for having very high alcohol content (more than 40%) and is best consumed in smaller quantities, combining it with other non-alcoholic drinks. Where To Get It: South India in Tamil Nadu in restaurants and from street vendors. 9- Falooda A colourful popular Indian summer drink called gulab falooda or gulab ka sherbat. Where To Get It: North India in licensed Bhang shops and during Holi celebrations. 16- Kallu Kallu is one of the Indian drinks made from toddy palms. Major brands like Waitrose, M&S, Sainsbury's and Fortnum & Mason have already launched some gorgeous Coronation-themed biscuits, hampers, chocolates and even booze, and we can't wait to see what else is in store.Don’t overlook cava if you’re looKing for a good party fizz. It’s made using the same technique as Champagne and English sparkling wine, so if you like those toasty flavours then it’s a better alternative than Prosecco. This is made from the classic Catalan varieties by a quality producer. If you’re having people over on Saturday 6 May then look no further. It took more than two centuries for sima to drip from high society's goblets to working-class glasses in Finnish homes. In Innamaa's day, sima remained an expensive upper-class beverage because both of the drink's main ingredients, honey and lemon, were still a rarity in the region. "Because of honey, sima was very expensive and only the richest bourgeois and Turku Castle's court could afford it," said Vuori. Although I’ve made it an entire year sober, I still feel uneasy around alcohol-like substitutes. Part of recovery’s difficult but redeeming work is understanding my boundaries, which were all too fluid and porous when I drank.
