Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers in the UK! Don’t panic my lovely US people, our Mother’s Day falls in a completely different month to yours. But in the UK, today is a day to celebrate the wonderful mothers, grandmothers and mother-figures in our lives – those wonderful women that support us, love us and care for us unconditionally.

At least I can now check off writing this post from the list… assuming I finish this, which I do! I have at least that much faith in myself. This is a recipe that shouldn’t have been made to wait either, so I formally apologise to both this Mojito Ice Cream Sundae and you guys!
