My fridge must-haves: Bubbly + Umeshu

What are your must-have products for your fridge?

For me it's not particularly food - we can always improvise or go out to a restaurant. It is a bottle of sparkling wine (not necessarily champagne, unless there's a celebration coming up, but a Prosecco or Sekt) and a bottle of Umeshu, a Japanese ume fruit liqueur. 


This stuff is so versatile - you can have it straight, or mix it with hot water to warm you up in winter, or drink it on the rocks. I like the variation called "Choya Royale: Sparkling Sensation" - that's sparkling wine and umeshu mixed together.


They have so many other serving suggestions on their website. For example, desserts:


I have tried several other "plum wines" - often cheaper ones served in Chinese restaurants - but they're never as good. So make sure you try this one from Choya.
