It’s a hot Summer’s day and you are hanging out with friends alfresco with a cool cocktail in hand and a table full of delicious canapés to keep the party rolling!
Forget boring dips and chips…think outside the box with our three easy canapé and two cocktail recipes that will take your Summer sips to a new high:
Crispy on the outside and packed with sweet crab, juicy corn and fresh coriander, these spring rolls are a flavour explosion in every bite. Get ready for a deliciously crunchy appetiser that’ll have everyone reaching for seconds (or even thirds).
These bite-sized salmon and cream cheese sandwiches are little pockets of creamy, savoury goodness perfect for snacking. Whether it's a fancy party or just a casual nibble, they’ll add a touch of elegance to any occasion.
Wrap any leftover celery tightly in foil and store in the crisper – the foil helps the celery retain moisture to keep it fresh.
Golden halloumi, zucchini and mint fritters are here to steal the show, with a sidekick of sizzling chorizo for extra flavour. These savoury bites are the perfect combo of fresh and bold, making snack time or dinner a total winner.
For crispy fritters that hold together nicely, make sure to squeeze as much liquid as you can from the grated zucchini so the batter doesn’t become too wet.
G&T is everyone’s favourite drink when it comes to Summer sipping along with a classic Negroni. Try this take on the popular cocktail which ups the ante with a hit of maple syrup to go with the gin, Campari and sweet vermouth, along with a twist of fresh orange rind to serve.
Coconut, pineapple and rum are definitely the flavours of Summer, especially in a Pina Colada cocktail! Adding a hit of maple syrup takes this cheeky concoction to the next level – don’t forget to decorate with a paper umbrella, maple flakes or a slice of fresh pineapple.
