This centerpiece beauty is fairly low prep while still being high impact, once you pop it on the table just watch how they flock round and start grazing. With the added benefit of being packed with fruit and veg, it\u2019s guilt free party food.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gousto.co.uk\/blog\/3-jugs-of-summer-iced-tea\">Jugs of Iced Tea<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15897\" src=\"https:\/\/gousto.gurucloud.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/iced-tea-combined-.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"4342\" height=\"4342\" \/>There\u2019s that old wives tale that the way to cool down is with a hot cup of tea, but I don\u2019t totally buy into that one. I find a tall glass of iced tea is a much better alternative on a hot summer&#8217;s day. If you make a few different options, it won&#8217;t take you long and will allow people to pour themselves a glass of whichever flavour they like.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gousto.co.uk\/blog\/cocktail-mocktail-ice-lolly-recipes\">Watermelon Ice Lollies\u00a0<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15905\" src=\"https:\/\/gousto.gurucloud.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Ice-Lolly-Watermelon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"4342\" height=\"4342\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Since the team wrote this recipe a few years ago (thanks Jenny), these ice lollies have become a regular summer snack at my house. I love them because not only are they fruit filled and delicious, they also look like cute little slices of watermelon.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>What is Gousto?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Dinner, but not as you know it.
