    I went treasure hunting the other day and struck gold in the shape of blackberries. They’re one of my favourite berries, they’re so full of summery flavour and sunshine.

    Redcurrant Nice Cream

    I’m already missing the heat wave. Summer, please come back! I want an excuse to make this cool, refreshing, awesome redcurrant nice cream again.
