A quick and easy six-ingredient ginger white wine spritzer recipe, perfect for when the sun shines!
The sun came out yesterday. It was gloriously bright and warm as the wind had died down for a while. At 9 am I was hanging out washing on the line and the temperature measured 15.6 C in the shade and 26.3 C in the full sun! (I stayed in the sun). 🙂 Sun and no wind mean one thing here – BBQ time, and a BBQ means ginger white wine spritzer!
What do you think of our makeshift barbecue? I found a discarded wheel well up on the hill, took it home and built a barbecue around it with beach stones. The depth is perfect for barbecue coals and it’s easy to clean afterwards. The grill came from one of the those inexpensive supermarket barbecues that didn’t last very long (the wind demolished it quite quickly). You can see a windbreak I’ve attempted to create to the right of the photo. I have to add more willow cuttings to it again this year as many of them blew away during the winter gales. Reinforcements for winter survival will be required!
