Ingredients
- 1 orange
- 1500g rhubarb stems, about 8 stems, chopped into 2cm pieces
- 200g golden caster sugar
Instructions
- Cut thick strips of zest from the orange, then squeeze the juice into a saucepan.
- Place the rhubarb with the caster sugar and orange zest in the pan with the juice, and set over a high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes or until well stewed
- Now comes the fun part!
- Grab a pair of tights (or a tea towel) and stretch over a jar/mixing bowl
- Carefully press the rhubarb through the sieve with a wooden spoon, pressing down to extract as much juice as possible.
- Allow the sieved juice to cool before pouring into a sterilised bottle
- Chill, then dilute to your taste with soda and lots of bashed mint sprigs
