Lime slices and frozen raspberries
Cucumber slices and a sprig of rosemary
Sliced pear, cinnamon stick, add a dash of maple syrup to serve
Blueberries and lemon slices
Strawberries and split vanilla bean
Of course knock yourself out with the alcohol options (not literally, please drink responsibly!!) This is summer in a glass.
