Food & Drink

A little like the traditional kir royale, this tasty drop is surprisingly simple, and very moreish. Don’t worry about breaking the bank with real Champagne; this drink is delicious with cava or prosecco. Try swapping out the bubbles for lemonade for an alcohol-free option.
This alcoholic milkshake is one for when the night is cold, the door’s shut and you’re settling in for the night. Chocolatey and delicious.
Apple and mint is a pairing that’s just a delight. Make the most of crisp, seasonal apples in this take on the traditional mojito that uses vodka in place of rum.
This delicious drink can be served hot or cold. We used blood orange for a more dramatic look, but normal oranges work just as well. This is perfect for sharing with your neighbour!
As food prices bite, it’s never been more important for us to buy seasonal food to match the season. Local shops and markets are always your best bet for fresh food, with buckets of flavour and crunch.
Making magnificent meals in an RV kitchen sounds impossible – however cooking in the Bürstner Lyseo TD744 proved a breeze when MCD Editor Catherine Milford took it on the road.
The trick to this stovetop mac & cheese is the evaporated milk, and minimal cooking water. Evaporated milk has more protein than regular milk, so the sauce is thick and creamy without the need for making a roux. All these ingredients have a long shelf life, making it easy to whip up this easy meal wherever you are.
Hot chicken sandwiches are the ultimate in fast comfort food. This recipe is tasty without being too spicy; if you like a bit of fire in your sarnie, keep the seeds in the chilli, double your cayenne pepper and/or add more sriracha.
Perfect for breakfast, lunch or even dinner, this is a great way of using up ripe bananas for a sweet snack that’s easy to prepare and even easier to eat!
Make the most of fresh New Zealand limes in this delicious Daiquri-esque cocktail. Thought to be the oldest known cocktail in Cuba, Canchánchara was served as a healing drink (both medicinal and magical). Often served warm, it was used as a cure for colds. Whether it actually has medicinal powers or not, try it – it tastes amazing!
