It’s been a while since I posted a recipe, but here comes one that is super easy and great for a relaxing day or a party 🙂
I love a good G&T, especially one with amped flavour. This guava and chilli combo is a childhood favourite and turns out that it makes for a great drink too 🙂
You just need guavas , lemon and some spices to make the concentrate. Easy! If you don’t want to make this an alcoholic drink you can just mix it with soda or tonic as well.
I like it with soda instead of tonic but you can mix both. It’s a savoury, slightly sweet drink and you will definitely go back for more 🙂
