I remain to be convinced, but the week or so we've had of warm weather is certainly welcome. johanna: Such a waste. Ribena should be a great drink but when you read the ingredients it's unfortunately not close to it :( Katie: It’s hard to believe given recent English weather, but I am told that it is in fact Summer right now.

I've read somewhere that 95% of British black currants end up in Ribena... what a waste! i love them on a carpaccio of pineapple, with some mint sugar drizzled on top. the ones i used to pick at home are the tastiest, juiciest specimens you can find, they taste of pure cassis (as in: the liqueur) and not insipid at all! there must be different varieties then, or maybe the English climate just doesn't become them! mmmh… blackcurrants!
