Today saw the start of London Cocktail Week, where top bars in London offer £4 cocktails to wristband wearers, as well as there being pop-ups, parties and tastings. It sounds like an excellent idea, and I wonder if it will catch on at the 2 local pubs in my Staffordshire village.
To celebrate this event Sodastream sent me one of their new Sodastream Play drinksmakers to try out, along with a few new 'free' flavours. Sodastream Free are naturally sweetened using fructose, and are free from artificial sweeteners, flavours, colours and preservatives. The 3 flavours available are Fresh Bitter Lemon, Apple-Peach and Passion-Mango. I used 2 of the flavours in these delicious cocktails.
Juice of half a lemon
1 tsp sugar
2 shots of vodka (or gin)
handful of ice cubes
Sodastream Free Bitter Lemon
- Add the lemon juice, sugar, vodka and ice cubes to a cocktail shaker
- Shake vigorously for 30 seconds
- Strain into 2 glasses
- Top up with Bitter lemon
Cherry & Apple Fizz - makes 2
1 tsp sugar
2 shots of vodka
Sodastream Free Apple-Peach
- Add the cherries, sugar & vodka to a cocktail shaker
- Shake vigorously for 30 seconds
- Strain into 2 glasses
- Top up with sparkling Apple-Peach
Minimal by design, and ultra-simple to use, Play is available in four vibrant colours, including white, black, red and yellow, to suit every kitchen worktop. Play is the first machine to feature the new ‘auto-lift’ slider, along with the popular ‘snap-lock’ mechanism, making it quick, simple and easy to use.SodaStream Play retails at £69.99 and will be available from June 2014.
