	Description:		A bank holiday special - sounds from the beach, a perfect summer drinks recipe, Marx in a minute and a new melody for the Sainsburys' boss. A review of the newspapers with John O'Farrell, Catherine Shuttleworth and Andrew Hunter-Murray. Alice Lascelle's recipe for: Jasmine, sherbet and tequila punch This refreshing, fragrant punch is equally delicious with or without tequila. SERVES 8: 400ml lemon sherbet* 600ml chilled, cold-infused jasmine tea** 40ml ginger cordial eg Belvoir 200ml chilled soda water 200ml blanco tequila eg Ocho or Tapatio (optional) To garnish: mint sprigs, cucumber wheels, lemon wheels Method: 1hr before you want to make the punch, prepare the jasmine tea and the sherbet. Then combine all the ingredients in a punch bowl, add lots of ice, a mix of mint sprigs, cucumber wheels and lemon wheels and serve in chunky rocks glasses over ice. This recipe works with or without tequila - if you want a bit more fire in the non-alcoholic version, add a splash more ginger cordial. * To make 500ml lemon sherbet: Combine 150g caster sugar with the grated zest and juice of 10 lemons (throw in the juice - but not the zest - of a couple of limes, too, if you've got them). Mix until all the sugar is dissolved. ** To make 1 litre jasmine tea: Put 3 jasmine tea bags in 1 litre of cold water and leave to infuse for an hour in the fridge. (Cold-infusing like this results in a much more delicate, complex flavour than brewing with hot water). You want the tea to be a bit stronger than you might normally drink it.
