Zero waste cordial/cocktail/mocktail mix!
I love making a ‘syrup’ with leftover rhubarb. I received some rhubarb this week and when it started to go soft, I decided to make some rhubarb cordial/cocktail mix.
All you need is:
✅ 2-4 cups of rhubarb chopped into small pieces
✅ 1 cup of brown sugar
✅ 1 cup of water
✅ pinch of nutmeg
Put in a slow cooker and cook for 4-6 hours or in an Instant Pot in pressure cooker mode for 30 mins. Mix it thoroughly for a smoother texture and pour into a jar.
Add one teaspoon to some carbonated water (I use a glass Soda Stream to make carbonated water) and you can also add a dash of gin to make it a cocktail! A lovely zero food waste drink!
This is such a clever way to use up rhubarb that's past its prime — I'm definitely trying the slow cooker version this weekend. The nutmeg is a nice touch I wouldn't have thought of, and the idea of having a ready-made mix for both mocktails and cocktails feels so practical. Speaking of clever time-fillers, I've been enjoying krillion as a quick daily brain break while my cordial simmers away — it's got that same satisfying balance of simple ingredients and rewarding results. Thanks for sharing this!
Reading your post immediately reminded me of the game monkey market — that feeling of meticulously harvesting produce, then processing it and selling it to customers who nod in approval, saying how delicious it is, it's exactly the same! It perfectly embodies the "super monkey" style of optimizing ingredients!
