A perfectly shaken daiquiri with House of Angostura and a playful garnish is just the kind of love language we can all get behind this Valentine’s Day.

Ingredients:
• 50ml white rum
• 25ml fresh lime juice
• 15ml simple syrup
• 4 fresh strawberries
• 2 dashes ANGOSTURA® aromatic bitters
• Ice

Method:
• Toss the rum, lime juice, simple syrup, strawberries, and ANGOSTURA® aromatic bitters into a blender with ice.
• Blend until smooth and dreamy.
Pour into a chilled coupe or daiquiri glass.
• Slice a strawberry, carve a tiny “V” at the top, and boom—you’ve got a heart-shaped garnish. Perch it on the rim for maximum romance.
• Sip, swoon, and repeat.

This Valentine’s Day, whether you’re celebrating love, friendship, or just the joy of a darn good drink, let ANGOSTURA® bitters be your wingman. Because every great love story deserves a great cocktail.

💗 Supporting Breast Cancer Survivors with Compassion & Hope with MushroomsSA , R4R and PicknPay 💗

For over 50 years, Reach for Recovery (R4R) has been uplifting underprivileged breast cancer survivors, not only by saving lives but by helping women embrace confident futures. Through their Ditto Project, silicone breast forms are provided free of charge to State hospital patients who cannot afford reconstruction post-mastectomy — ensuring dignity and empowerment for countless women.

The South African Mushroom Farmers’ Association (SAMFA) and Pick n Pay have proudly championed this cause for 13 years. Thanks to the Power of Pink campaign, which donates R1 from every pink punnet of fresh mushrooms sold, a remarkable R351,260 was donated today, January 30, 2025. These funds will go toward breast prostheses (which cost over R3000 each) and care bags offered by R4R volunteers to patients in recovery.

As SAMFA Chairperson Ross Richardson notes, “Surviving breast cancer is more than just medical survival — it’s about embracing a full, joyful life beyond the disease."

Together, we can make a difference. 🌸

Grilled Vegetable Platter with Yoghurt & Herb Dressing | Serves 6 | Recipe by MushroomsSA

HERB DRESSING
• 1 cup mixed herbs (basil, coriander and parsley work well)
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 3 tbsp plain yoghurt
• 3 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
• 2 tsp Dijon mustard
• salt and pepper, to taste

GRILLED VEGETABLES
• 2 large portabello steaks
• 400g portabellini mushrooms, sliced in half
• 1 red onion, sliced into thick rounds
• 2 pearl onions, sliced in half
• 1 head of romaine / cos lettuce, sliced in half
• 100g / 1 bunch asparagus spears
• 6 small courgettes, sliced in half
• 6 baby eggplant, sliced in half
• 6 patty pans, sliced in half
• olive oil
• micro herbs and crunchy fresh radish, to serve

For the dressing, in a blender, combine all the ingredients.
Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Thin out with a little cold water if desired.

For the vegetables, preheat braai or griddle pan to medium-high heat.
One vegetable at a time, toss in a drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Grill in batches, flipping once, until tender and lightly charred.

To get really defined grill marks, press the vegetables down using a metal spatula as you place them on the griddle pan / braai.

Serve the grilled vegetables scattered with micro herbs and fresh radish, along with a generous drizzle of the herb dressing.
