Looking back at dessert “Viva la Vida,” created for a special menu at Tate Modern Restaurant.

Inspired by the watermelons in Frida Kahlo’s final painting, it brings together three ice creams (sorrel, British yoghurt and strawberry) finished with chamomile oil and served alongside crisp buñuelos.

We paired it with reposado, its toasted caramel notes matching the dessert’s light, fruit-led sweetness perfectly, complementing it without ever overpowering.

If you missed it at Tate Modern Restaurant, it’s on our menu all September.
