Party like a King: The Only Recipes You’ll need on Coronation Day

A table full of nibbles and drinks Platinum jubilee themed
Pink sqiggle Ice Cubes Ice Cubes

To make the most of this extra bank holiday, you better believe we’ve got big plans for coronation day on the 6th of May! For many of us, this will be the first coronation we’ve been alive to witness, with the royals encouraging the public to host street parties and get involved with the local community as part of the Big Help Out.

Whether you’re planning to spend it celebrating in the streets with your neighbours or hosting your own party at home, we’ve got the drinks covered and have pulled together all of our favourite royal recipes to keep your thirst quenched all day.

Darjeeling Iced Tea

The procession is set to start at around 10 am, and with the hopes of a sunny forecast, it’s the perfect time to enjoy a delicious, iced tea to start the day. Rumour has it that Darjeeling is King Charles’ tea of choice, which lucky for us also makes the perfect cold brew iced tea! See here how you can make it yourself:

Ingredients

X 5tbsp loose Darjeeling tea or 10 teabags
X 2 lemons, sliced
X 8 cups filtered water
X 1-2 tbsp honey
X Polar Cube Ice

Method

1. Place 5 tablespoons of loose Darjeeling tea or 10 teabags into a pitcher, add the sliced lemons and then pour in the filtered water. Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours, with 6 hours offering the optimum flavour.
2. Add the honey and stir well till combined.
3. Strain the tea into glasses filled with Polar Cube, ensuring that tea leaves or fruit stays in the jug.
4. Top with a squeeze of lemon juice and some mint leaves and enjoy!

The King Charles

At 12 pm, we will officially see Charles crowned as king, with the procession back to Buckingham Palace beginning around 1 pm, and what better way to watch than with a signature coronation cocktail in hand? As a nod to our newly crowned king, we’ve created a twist on one of his favourites, a classic martini, to bring you ‘The King Charles’ Gin Lavender Martini.

Ingredients

X 1 handful Party Ice
X 30ml Lavender Syrup
X 45ml Gin
X 1 Egg White
Juice of Half a Lemon
Garnish: Gold Leaf

Method

1. Add all ingredients to a shaker with Party Ice and shake well.
2. Strain into a martini glass using a fine strainer.
3. Garnish with gold leaf. Serve and enjoy!

 

Royal Tea Cocktail

By 2:15 pm, our newly crowned King and Queen will make an appearance on the balcony for a flypast and like true Brits, we will be watching with a cup of tea in hand. We can’t celebrate with just any old tea though, we will be whipping up our Royal Tea Cocktail that’s perfect for sharing with all of our guests.

Ingredients

X 1 Pot Freshly Brewed Earl Grey Tea, Chilled
X 1-2 Super Cubes
X 25ml Gin
X 1 tsp Sugar
Garnish: Lemon Wedge

Method

1. Place the tea bag into a tea pot and fill with boiling water. Leave to cool in the fridge.
2. Place a Super Cube into a cup and pour over the gin. Once cooled, pour in the tea.
3. Stir in the teaspoon of sugar, garnish with a lemon wedge and serve!

Great British Freakshake

As the televised events draw to a close you might take some time to enjoy an afternoon tea or maybe a slice of a coronation quiche, but we’re already looking forward to dessert. Last year to celebrate the jubilee, we created a Great British Freakshake and what better excuse than a coronation to bring it back this summer?

Ingredients

X 2 handfuls Party Ice
X 2 handfuls Strawberries
X 2 handfuls Raspberries
X 1 cup Milk
Top up: Whipped Cream
Garnish: Mini Meringues, Battenberg and Strawberries

Method

1. Add the ice, milk, strawberries and raspberries to a blender & blend until smooth.
2. Pour into a glass and top with the squirty cream and place a mini meringue on top.
3. Thread the strawberries and Battenberg onto a bamboo stick. Garnish and serve!

To bring the day of celebrations to a close and in honour of the king, who’s so partial to a glass of scotch that he has his own (Highgrove Organic Single Malt Scotch), we will be finishing the day with a whisky poured over our Super Cubes – a serve fit for a King.

Platinum Pimm’s Pitcher

With the celebrations ongoing through till Monday, it would be rude not to have at least one jug of Pimm’s right? We’ve switched up the recipe for a delicious twist on the classic, but don’t worry this will go down like a treat, especially if the suns out!

Ingredients

X 2 handfuls Party Ice
X 4 measures Pimm’s No.1
X 2 measures sparkling white wine
X 500ml pink lemonade
X 1 handful strawberries, sliced
X 1 orange cut into wedges
X 1/2 cucumber sliced
Garnish: x1 mint sprig

Method

1. Add the ice and fruit to a jug.
2. Add the Pimm’s, wine and lemonade.
3. Stir well, garnish with mint and serve!

Make sure you share your coronation-themed drinks with us over on The Ice Co Instagram, and don’t forget the ice!
