Bartender top tips
Around 175,000 tonnes of citrus fruit are wasted in the UK each year! Help us save the planet by using the husks of squeezed lemons, limes, oranges and even grapefruits to create a super tasty homemade citrus cordial. Simply cold infuse your waste citrus husks in water for around 24 hours in the fridge. Strain off the husks then add the same weight of sugar and a spoon of citric acid (readily available online) to your gently heated infused water solution. Adjust the recipe between batches to find your preferred taste. Enjoy experimenting sustainably and enjoy your cocktail even more for it!
