Drink match Stone Pine Distillery Choca-Mocha Iced Coffee, Bathurst, NSW
You could quite happily enjoy this beautiful bread and butter with a hot cup of tea, but where’s the fun in that? Cater to your sweet tooth by sprinkling over some icing sugar and pairing it up with a creative mid-afternoon iced coffee cocktail. Bathurst’s Stone Pine Distillery has infused its own vodka with coffee beans to produce a coffee liqueur. Add some ice, milk and turn afternoon tea into something altogether more sinful.

Hot Tips
Over crowding the deep fryer
Do not over crowd your deep fryer. The fried food must have bubbling hot oil all the way around it for it to cook evenly and quickly. If you put too many ingredients in the deep fryer at once it will reduce the temperature of the oil resulting in a soggy mess.
