Rhubarb cordial:
· 80 g Rhubarb stalks
· 150 g water
· pinch of salt
· 1 whole strawberry (mine was 25 g)
· 1,25 g lemon peel
· 80 g sugar
· 0,6 g pectinex
· juice of one lemon (peel it first)
· 3 g citric acid

Cook the rhubarb stalks in water with a pinch of salt for 3 minutes on medium heat. Add all the ingredients to a blender and blend it thoroughly. Leave it to sit for at least an hour then strain it through a really fine strainer. Use the purée to make ice-cream.

Rhubarb soda:
· 60 g Rhubarb cordial
· 240 g water

Chill both in the fridge and carbonate the mixture with your preferred technique (I used a home carbonator).

Ice cream:
Mix all the leftover purée from the cordial with full-fat yogurt (half the weight of the purée). Add gin (go for 10% weight of the mixture) and mix it thoroughly. Freeze it in a freezer.

Lemon powder:
Dehydrate the leftover lemon peels in a dehydrator for 3 h at 70°C or 155°F. Grind with a mortar and pestle to get a nice powder. Add to the side of the glass for some extra lemon flavor.

Rabarbarosa:
· 50 ml (1,66 oz) Malfy gin Rosa
· 100 ml (3,33 oz) rhubarb soda
· 1 drop of saline solution
