The ritual of cocktail hour without the alcohol

We love the ritual of cocktail hour, taking time to craft a little alchemy in a glass to help unwind at the end of the day.
The world’s first non-alcoholic distilled spirit, Seedlip has forever changed how we view that ritual. Providing all the sensory pleasure of a spirit without the alcohol, this innovative product is also free of calories, sugar, sweetener or artificial flavours.
Blended and bottled in England, Seedlip is now served in over 200 Michelin-starred restaurants and some of the world’s – and New Zealand’s – best cocktail bars, and can be bought locally in supermarkets and at Smith & Caugheys, Farro Fresh, Glengarry and cookandnelson.com
Whether you’re abstaining for the month of July or just curious to try a non-alcoholic cocktail, see below for a chance to win one of two Seedlip prize packs.
And for something special to try at home, why not try recreating this delicious Plum Martini from Daphnes in Ponsonby, made with Seedlip Spice 94, plum, ginger and blackberry.

We start by sharing what’s on the dish team’s radar, what we’re watching, listening to and reading. Harry Butterfield puts a twist on his Nonna’s agnolotti, Malissa Fedele reminds us of the importance of fibre, and Phoebe Holden fulfils a long-held dream, sitting down with Yotam Ottolenghi. Autumn is an abundant time, we make the most with pumpkin, kūmara, cabbage, cauliflower, feijoas, apples and pears. We’re dishing up dinners for two, including a Chicken Dumpling Lasagne, alongside easy weeknight meals. We honour our mums, revisit timeless classics, and add a little baking challenge. This issue, we encourage you to slow down, to enjoy writing your shopping list, and spending time in the kitchen. Because even when life feels relentless, there’s always space to share something delicious.
