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.I'm getting into my Magimix juicer and at this time of year it's just great for fruity drinks. Once made, transfer the drink into plastic bottles so you can freeze it and use it as an ice pack in your cool box and then drink ice cold as it melts.
4 pink or yellow grapefruit, peeled
150g sugar
500ml water
Bring the water and sugar to the boil and leave to cool. Meanwhile put the grapefruit through a juicer, or blend in a liquidiser and strain. Mix the syrup and juice together and decant into a plastic bottle and freeze until required.
