Nutritional values

This light drink is extremely refreshing and perfect for the summer months. It is low in calories and most of the sugar is from the rhubarb, not from added sugars. 

You can always use non alcoholic rosé if you do not drink.

Preparation steps

1.
Place the rhubarb, sugar and water in a pot and simmer for about 10 minutes until soft. Puree the rhubarb and leave to cool.
2.
Add the lemon juice and the sparkling wine and place in a freezer for around 3 hours. Stir with a fork every now and again to keep the mixture grainy. It should not be creamy like a sorbet.
