Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Chambord is a French raspberry liqueur with a hint of honey. It is great for making cocktails with less alcohol, perfect for lazy afternoons. If no Chambord is available, a good quality cassis makes an adequate substitute, and for the kids a brilliant, non-alcoholic version can be made with Ribena.
50ml Chambord
¾ of a lemon cut into halved wedges
8 raspberries
Soda water
Muddle the lemon wedges in the base of a large highball glass. Add the Chambord, raspberries and a cup of crushed ice, lightly churn and then fill the glass with crushed ice and soda. Garnish with raspberries and a lemon wedge.
