Yes, I made a drink that’s from South of France! It’s very easy to make this drink. All you need are Ricard, almond syrup, water, and ice cubes. The name is Mauresque.

You probably have heard of Ricard, the Pastis of Marseille, a very well known star anis flavoured liqueur from France. This drink is particularly popular during summer, when it’s nice and warm outside! (I know summer is over, but, hey it doesn’t matter, does it?) Normally, Mauresque is taken as an apéritif.

To make this drink, first is to fill a highball glass with some ice cubes, pour in 10ml of almond syrup, then about 40ml of Ricard. Finally, fill the glass with water. That’s how easy it is.

As I didn’t use highball glass, (which usually is used to serve this drink) I just pour the quantity based on my own estimation and liking (in a sensible way, of course!) By the way, DO NOT drink like this: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2mk9c_boire-du-ricard-cest-tout-un-art_fun

Refereshing, easy to drink…..what do you think it would be? Stay tune……

Raffraichissant, facile a boire….. que pensez-vous que cela soit? Stay tune….. ” Marseillais, pitaing!”

Have you ever felt too lazy to do anything on a Saturday/Sunday morning? Or that you have slept too much that it makes you feel more tired than before? Sometimes, we just need to pamper our body and give it a little bit of a boost.

It’s really simple. I do this from time to time and I think it’s good to have detox day. It’s just like a car needs MOT on a yearly basis, but our body needs more frequent tuning than a car!

You can use any of your favourite fruits to make a glass of goodness that will cleanse your body thoroughly. It will make you feel good after drinking this pure goodness!

I am sure everyone knows how to make smoothie - fruits of your choice + crushed ice. The one that I made was Strawberries & Orange smoothie. I love this combination. Having said this, there are many good combinations that I love.

If you plan to sleep in a little this weekend and have selections of fruits in your fridge, why don’t you indulge yourself with a glass that smoothie that’s too good to resist?

It’s another Sunday that has gone passed so quickly! What’s best to do on a Sunday? Why don’t you give this refereshing cocktail a try.
