Six of the Best mid-morning drinks

2016 Innocent Bystander Moscato

(£10, The Wine Reserve) A low alcohol (5.5% vol), ridiculously drinkable sweet

pink fizz from Oz.

Hidalgo Pastrana Manzanilla Pasada

(£12, Wine Society) Keep a bottle in the fridge for

instant revivification.

Henriques & Henriques 10 year old Malmsey Madeira

(£22, Majestic) Gloriously tasty, full of toffee and nuts and spot on with a

mid-morning bicky.

nicolas Feuillatte Brut nv

(£19 if you buy six, Majestic) The best-selling champagne in France – and darn good

it is, too.

taylor’s 10 year old tawny Port

(£23, Waitrose) Textbook tawny, best served

very lightly chilled.

Foxdenton golden apricot gin liqueur

(£24.50, www.foxdentonestate.co.uk).

Utterly scrumptious and only 17.5% vol, thus perfect

for mid-morning.
