HOT HOT SUMMER<br />
Ice lollies are the easiest thing to make ever<br />
- FACT<br />
All you need is an ice-lolly mould (the Poundshop<br />
sells these). If you don’t have one of these plastic<br />
cups also will work well or if you don’t have these<br />
mugs with plastic food bags in them also work<br />
well.<br />
Choose your juice, milkshake, fi zzydrink - pour in<br />
and freeze overnight!<br />
But if you fancy something a bit more exotic and<br />
to keep yourself cool before you hit the toon on<br />
a night out you might fancy a more alcoholic<br />
frozen treat.<br />
Any alcoholic drink of your choice mixed with a<br />
fruit juice or a fi zzy drink. The ratio of alcohol to<br />
mixer should be 1:3 otherwise the lollies will<br />
not freeze.<br />
A few ideas to get you started…<br />
• Passion fruit juice and Vodka<br />
• Rum and Cherry Coke<br />
• Vodka, lemonade and lime cordial<br />
Make your own Pizza<br />
Well it’s tastier than any old shop made<br />
thing, plus it’s a good excuse to get<br />
your hands messy.<br />
• 1kg strong white bread fl our<br />
• 1 level tablespoon fi ne sea salt<br />
• 2 x 7g sachets of dried yeast<br />
• 1 tablespoon golden caster sugar<br />
• 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil<br />
• 650ml lukewarm water<br />
Mix together the fl our and the salt, while in a jug<br />
mix the yeast, sugar and olive oil into the water<br />
(leave for a little bit) then pour into a well in the<br />
dry ingredients. Mix and knead until you have a<br />
smooth dough. Leave the dough to rest for an<br />
hour or so somewhere warm until it has doubled<br />
in size. When it has done this you knead it once<br />
more and then divide the dough up into 6 to 8<br />
balls and roll to about half a cm before covering<br />
with your choice of topping.<br />
