Dublin Donkey<br />

recipe by Andie Fuller | photographer, Andie Fuller<br />

Summer is the perfect time for trying new things. For instance,<br />

I was hoping to share a healthy “nicecream” recipe for coconut<br />

milk ice cream. It’s gorgeous and full of lemon, maple syrup<br />

and a bit of saffron. It’s the perfect cool down treat for hot<br />

summer weather. But, I couldn’t get my coconut milk to transform<br />

into ice cream, I gave it three attempts and just wasn’t<br />

happy with the result.<br />

It’s a bummer when things don’t go the way we planned but<br />

it’s important to carry on anyway. Remember there is no such<br />

thing as failure. <strong>The</strong>re is only education. When we don’t get the<br />

result we want, we must not give up, we must find new action.<br />

So, I encourage you this summer to keep on keepin’ on. What<br />

goals or dreams have you set aside? It’s the perfect time to put<br />

new action behind them. And also know, the action itself is it’s<br />

own reward.<br />

After three attempts at my Lemon-Saffron Coconut Ice Cream,<br />

I took new action. To be honest, I needed a drink and I thought<br />

I’d share my family’s go to cocktail. <strong>The</strong> Dublin Donkey. You<br />

don’t need a shaker or a fancy glass, just some limes, ginger beer<br />

and Irish Whiskey (which I always recommend you have on<br />

hand for emergencies).<br />

All the love,<br />

Andie<br />
