Quench your thirst with these non-alcoholic coolers.
WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS: Fill a jug with homemade lemonade.
Peel off the zest of six unwaxed lemons, then squeeze out the juice and set aside. Add the zest to 125g sugar and 400ml water in a saucepan, and boil slowly, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
Add the lemon juice and leave to cool then strain into a jug and top up with sparkling water.
BERRY NICE: If you're a fan of raspberries, you'll love this juicy summer cooler.
Blend 40ml Belvoir Raspberry & Lemon Cordial with 40ml lemon juice, 80ml cloudy apple juice and a chunk of watermelon.
Sieve it into a glass filled with ice cubes and garnish with more watermelon or raspberries.
COOL AS A CUCUMBER: Chop a peeled cucumber and blitz in a food mixer with a small handful of mint leaves.
Sieve the juice into a bowl, then mix with 250ml elderflower cordial and the juice of four limes.
Pour into glasses filled with ice and garnish with mint.

WHAT A PEACH: Tip a 400g tin of peaches, juice and all, into a blender and add the juice of a lemon. Blitz until smooth, then push through a fine sieve. Discard any pulp and pour the puree into a large jug.
Fill with ice cubes and stir, then top with 300ml sparkling water and 50ml elderflower cordial. Add some rosemary sprigs and a sliced peach, if you like.

MONSTER MASH: Mash 25 strawberries and mix with a litre of lemonade, the juice of two limes and a small handful of freshly chopped mint leaves.
Then serve in four cooled glasses filled with cubes of ice.
