Serves 6

  • 500g rhubarb
  • 3 tsp caster sugar
  • 1 star anise
  • 1 bottle of champagne or prosecco

Put the rhubarb, sugar, and a splash of water in a pan and bring to simmer until the rhubarb is soft. Take it off the heat, let it cool, and leave for a few hours for the star anise to infuse.

Remove the star anise and put the rhubarb into a food processor and put the smooth mixture into a jug. 

Pour a little pulp, no more than 1cm, into the bottom of a champagne glass and top up with champagne or prosecco.
