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've used Luscome Sicilian Lemonade here, which uses an old-fashioned recipe. If you have people coming to dinner who are driving, then this mocktail is just the ticket.

If you can't find logan- or tayberries, there are some great early-cultivated blackberries which I'm pretty sure have been crossed with loganberries, so similar are they in look and a taste.

200g loganberries or tayberries
1ltr Luscome Sicilian Lemonade
A handful of bush basil

Crush the loganberries a little, then simply spoon into a tall glass with ice and a few sprigs of basil – top up with the lemonade.
