If you are still looking for new ways of using rhubarb, why not try this pink rhubarb-flavoured lemonade?

Rhubarb Lemonade


500g chopped rhubarb
250-300g sugar
1.5 tablespoons grated lemon zest
150ml lemon juice

  1. Combine the rhubarb, sugar and grated lemon zest in a large saucepan and bring to the boil.  Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the sugar has dissolved and the rhubarb releases its juice and starts to break up, about 10 minutes.  Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice.
  2. Pour the rhubarb mixture through a fine sieve, pressing out as much liquid as possible.  To serve, mix the 1 part rhubarb syrup with 3 parts water and pour over ice.  Dilute with sparkling water for a fizzy drink.

The syrup can also be frozen.

    Mary has an allotment and also keeps bees.  Weeds such as nettles and dandelions are good for wildlife.  "I wouldn't want to eliminate weeds altogether, so I'm always pleased to find more uses for them", says Mary.
