We Have a New Cocktail - Thank You Absolut

Over the last two years, we discovered a beach, named “Noever Beach” by Ms Cleo.

Lovely white sand, a good swimming hole and just perfect, not too far to walk from the car.

 This is last year.

 

When we left our house in the hills, to go to the beach this is where we headed

Well would you believe, our Friend Trishie is living there, of all the beach properties, in Raro, how did we all choice this spot?

Meant to be, I reckon

Here is the view looking out over Noever Beach, Sunset Time, last night

Is this just Paradise, or what?

Juice of half a lemon

Some sea salt and freshly ground

If you have an orange, throw in some zest gives it a great citrusy flavour

First blanch red onion in boiling water for about 30 seconds

Drain and toss in about 2 tablespoons  French Dressing

Add herbs and leave to marinate in the fridge

When potatoes are cooked, fork tender

Add to onions

Add some more dressing to moisten

Back to chill

To assemble

Just lay some nice crisp greens on a plate
