Strawberry cocktail madness

Strawberries are one of the most popular fruits, both by adults and children. They are not only tasty and beautifully fragrant, but also a very valuable source of vitamins (C, A, B1, B2 and PP) and microelements. Moreover, they cleanse the intestines from food leftovers, have detoxifying properties, have a beneficial effect on the skin and hair, and are also recommended for people with kidney and liver diseases. Therefore, it is worthwhile to introduce them to everyday diet from the moment they appear in shops.

For breakfast, a strawberry cocktail is a perfect idea. Strawberries can be mixed with virtually all fruits, in each combination they taste delicious - says Agnieszka Wyrzykowska, author of the only blog on drinks and cocktails in the Internet. Apart from the fruit itself, to such a strawberry cocktail we can add a scoop of ice cream, milk, cream, natural or flavoured yoghurt or homogenised cheese, e.g. with vanilla flavour. - It adds. Such a breakfast is only a few minutes' work, but in summer there is no better way to start the day.

What about lunch? Strawberry compote of course! A little bit forgotten compotes are coming back to favor recently, and on our tables instead of sweet, sparkling drinks there are often homemade compotes made of fresh fruit. When cooking strawberry compote it's worth remembering not to keep it on fire for too long, because strawberries will lose their colour.  And if you don't like compotes - I recommend a delicious strawberry lemonade with basil - this amazing combination tastes not only for adults but also for children.

Drinks made of fresh strawberries can also be drunk in the evening, in a reinforced version, for adults. Especially popular is the strawberry version of the popular Margarita or Shanghai Flower - an unusual drink based on vodka, in which fresh strawberries are combined with basil. Drinks with fresh fruit, not only strawberries, can be bought in summer in all pubs and restaurants, but a few simple ingredients are enough to make such a drink at home. - says the blogger. - And if someone is looking for something more sophisticated, they may be tempted to drink Alcoves in strawberries, i.e. hollow strawberries filled with alcoholic jelly. This is a real summer party hit!

There are plenty of ways to use strawberries in the kitchen, so once you've baked all your favorite strawberry cakes, remember about delicious and healthy drinks, which can only be prepared at this time of year.
