As we have all been spending so much more time at home and in our gardens this summer we thought we would share with you some of our Executive Chef Ben Dutson’s summer recipe that you can prepare at home on your own BBQ and to wash it down, our friends at London Essence have given us some great ideas for mixing summer cocktails.
