It’s social season, which means you’ll be hard stretched to find a weekend over the next few months where you won’t have a drink in your hand the whole time. You’ve gotta stay hydrated, after all!
While the appeal of an Aperol is inescapable, it might shock you to know there are other seasonal drinks out there.
As someone who always has to have at least three drinks on the go, this is a topic I take seriously.

From soda, to spritzes, and wine, I’ve taken it upon myself to test the newest releases and tried and tested favourites that make excellent summer sips.
Keep reading for my selection of the best non-alcoholic and alcoholic summer drinks (so far…).
Many years ago, it began. I noticed tiny, flesh-coloured bumps on my fingers ― they itched so badly I was tempted to bite my hand (no, really), an urge which only subsided when the little blisters finally burst and flaked.
Then, a month later, the process started again. It’s happened about once every six weeks since.
If that sounds familiar, you might be struggling with a condition called dishydrotic eczema, or pompholyx.

They’re very small, extremely itchy, and might leak fluid for the first couple of weeks (oh, good).
After the blisters burst, people with the condition are usually left with dry, scaly, potentially broken skin. This is when the risk of infection is at its highest, as the skin barrier has been broken down.
The whole process usually takes about two to three weeks, the NHS says.

According to the National Eczema Society, “This condition can occur at any age but is usually seen in adults under 40, and is more common in women.”
We don’t know exactly what causes it, but some people think it could flare up during times of stress, due to excess heat and sweating, and/or sensitivity to metals like nickel, cobalt or chromate.
Half of people with the condition either have atopic eczema or a family history of it too.
You should see your doctor if you think you have pompholyx, partly because symptoms like it can be caused by conditions like hand, foot, and mouth disease.

That’s one of the reasons why the NHS says you shouldn’t try to diagnose yourself with the condition.
A woman has been taken to hospital with “life-threatening” injuries after a crash near the Cambridgeshire border. Suffolk Police were called to Brandon Road, Eriswell on Thursday, May 28, with reports of a crash.

In 2024, voters in the Southern California city of Arcadia elected the first all-Asian city council in the city’s history.
Now, one of those politicians has pleaded guilty to being an illegal agent of the Chinese government. Former Arcadia Mayor Eileen Wang’s plea, entered in federal court Friday, continues a saga that some residents of the area worry could bring unfair scrutiny on the broader Chinese and Asian American community.
Arcadia has gone under rapid demographic change in the last two decades as immigrants from China, Taiwan and Hong Kong flocked to the San Gabriel Valley east of Los Angeles. After Wang’s case was made public May 11, the news made national headlines and filled the unassuming suburban city with anger, disappointment and murmurs of quiet concern. On social media, fears about spies and Chinese Communist Party influence abounded.
“We cannot allow this moment to become an excuse for people to paint entire communities with one brush or weaponize ethnicity for political gain,” acting Mayor Paul Cheng said in a statement.

Shock in heavily Chinese community
Wang agreed in April to plead guilty to doing the bidding of Chinese officials by sharing articles favorable of Beijing on a news website she ran, without notifying the U.S. government as required by law.
The 56-year-old was elected in November 2022 to a five-person City Council, from which the mayor is selected on a rotating basis. She was born in Chengdu, China, and immigrated to the U.S. in 1995.
The San Gabriel Valley is home to the largest concentration of residents of Chinese and Taiwanese descent in the United States. Beginning in the 1970s, real estate developers marketed the region as “Chinese Beverly Hills” to woo affluent immigrants. As the population grew, it became a haven for newer immigrants who could go about life without needing English, access business opportunities, and avoid putting their children through China’s intensely competitive education system. Arcadia’s population of about 53,000 is majority Asian, like many other cities in the region.

Ted Tseng, 52, arrived in Arcadia from Taiwan nearly 40 years ago with his parents, who emigrated because they feared potential conflict between Taiwan and China.
Tseng was concerned Wang’s indictment would deepen animosity against Asian Americans and discredit their contributions to the region. Fears of anti-Asian racism, though hate crimes are down since the COVID-19 pandemic, still linger.
“I’m just worried our image has been damaged,” Tseng said.
Feds crack down on Chinese espionage

The U.S. Department of Justice has escalated efforts in recent years to combat Chinese espionage. In April, a man accused of running a secret Chinese spy outpost in Manhattan’s Chinatown neighborhood was convicted of acting as an illegal foreign agent.
Wang has suggested that she was misled by her former fiance, Yaoning “Mike” Sun, who pleaded guilty to the same charge last year and is now serving a four-year prison sentence. Sun was the treasurer for Wang’s 2022 election campaign.
A statement shared by Wang’s lawyers references her “trust and love for apparently the wrong person who ultimately led her astray.”
April Verlato, a former City Council member who served with Wang, said Wang and Sun lived together, and Sun accompanied Wang wherever she went.

Verlato said Wang should have stepped down as soon as she came under investigation.
“She was being selfish, getting sworn in as mayor and not resigning when she knew she was going to be pleading guilty to something,” Verlato said.
Gene Sun, a long-time lawyer in Arcadia, agreed.
“I don’t understand how she could have continued being a City Council member,” he said.

Beijing seeks influence overseas
It is not surprising that the Chinese government would attempt to exert political influence in the region, especially given the increased political tension and economic rivalry between China and the U.S. in recent years, said Wei Li, a professor of Asian Pacific American Studies at Arizona State University.
“A lot of countries, if they have the will and if they have the means, will try to influence their diaspora,” Li said.
According to his federal criminal complaint, Sun was in contact with John Chen, who also pleaded guilty to being an illegal agent of the Chinese government, regarding local politicians that Beijing could influence. In reports to Chinese officials, Sun and Chen called Wang a “New Political Star” and bragged about her contacts with mainstream U.S. politicians.

They also wrote of combatting “anti-China forces” such as Taiwan independence and the Falun Gong, an exiled anti-communist spiritual movement.
In a January 2023 message from Chen to Wang referenced in Sun’s criminal complaint, Chen said: “You are doing a good job, I hope you can continue the good work, make Chinese people proud.”
Some fear political repercussions for Asian Americans
Not only was the news of her guilty plea like a “slap in the face,” the reaction from some community members has also been painful, said Cheng, the acting mayor.

Some residents at a May 19 City Council meeting blamed remaining council members for enabling Wang and called for their resignations.
“I’ve been called more names, been told to go back to China although that’s not where I’m from,” said Cheng, who came to the U.S. from Taiwan at age 2.
For many Arcadia residents and workers, life was as usual the day after the news broke. Many smiled apologetically when asked about the issue, saying they don’t pay attention to politics.
Aliza Mo, who emigrated from China six years ago for her children’s education, said she first thought the headlines must be exaggerated.

“A lot of people wondered if it was discrimination,” she said.
When she learned what Wang pleaded guilty to, she changed her mind.
“I think it would be improper for anyone to be doing something like that,” she said.
The WASPI campaign is seeking a judicial review of the DWP’s refusal to pay state pension age compensation, as the group raises funds and awaits a High Court decision on whether their legal challenge will proceed
The WASPI campaign (Women Against State Pension Inequality) continues to challenge the Government’s position and press for compensation payments. The organisation believes the current political uncertainty in Westminster offers new opportunities to garner support.
Advertisement
In January 2025, Labour announced there would be no compensation for women born in the 1950s represented by WASPI and similar groups. These women were affected by the state pension age increasing from 60 to 65 and later to 66. Campaigners maintain they weren’t properly informed of the changes, with many discovering them too late, leaving their retirement plans in ruins. The Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman previously backed their case, finding the DWP guilty of maladministration.
The Parliamentary watchdog proposed compensation sums ranging from £1,000 to £2,950 and urged Parliament to tackle the issue. However, Labour has rejected compensation, contending that most affected women were aware of the changes and that earlier notification would have made little difference.
WASPI has subsequently filed an application for a judicial review of this decision. The campaign group anticipates hearing from the courts within the next two to three months about whether their claim will advance to the High Court.
Numerous MPs have individually expressed their support for compensation, as have particular political parties. This includes the Liberal Democrats and the Greens. Both parties increased their councillor numbers in the recent local elections, while Labour shed more than 1,400 seats, mirroring the country’s mounting dissatisfaction with the Labour Government. Angela Madden, chair of the WASPI campaign, suggested that the current turmoil in Westminster might offer a new chance for them to make progress, reports Lancs Live.

‘Quite interesting’ development
Ms Madden said: “Keir Starmer’s Government becomes less popular every day. I think Andy Burnham joining the race in the Makerfield by election is quite interesting.
“Andy does say he is a supporter of ours, but then so did many Labour people before they got into power.” Andy Burnham had previously told the BBC that he considered the decision not to award WASPI compensation to be “the wrong decision”, saying that all political parties ought to have accepted the Ombudsman’s report and acted on its findings.
Ms Madden noted that the campaign has substantial backing from Labour backbenchers. WASPI is currently fundraising to meet its legal expenses for the judicial review, aiming for £100,000, having already secured over £60,000.
The campaign leader stated she remains “hopeful” that they will continue to gain momentum. Reform UK emerged as the clear victors in the local elections, securing hundreds of seats and assuming control of numerous councils.

‘A complete unknown’ Ms Madden acknowledged that the implications for their campaign remain unclear. She said: “It’s a complete unknown. They haven’t come out in support of WASPI, so we still don’t know. It’s a very difficult time, but it seems there will always be opportunities in any change for us, there always have been.”
While the high court has the authority to overturn the DWP’s ruling, it is not in a position to order any compensation payments. In the near future, WASPI will be attending a number of union conferences over the coming weeks in an effort to raise awareness and secure additional support.
The organisation will be represented at the GMB conference in Blackpool and the Unison conference in Brighton, with both events due to take place in June.
Manchester United’s summer transfer prospects are on the up as Michael Carrick goes about improving his options
Manchester United have received word off AC Milan forward Rafael Leao that could influence their summer transfer plans. Michael Carrick is currently processing a whirlwind first six months at Old Trafford but has no time to rest on his laurels.
Advertisement
The same can be said for a number of squad stars, many of whom are preparing for the World Cup 2026 kick-off in a fortnight. But with only seven weeks until United’s first pre-season friendly, even those with a summer break don’t have too long before the action resumes.
That leaves time for a host of new arrivals to plant roots at Old Trafford before Carrick’s men reunite in July. And Mirror Football has compiled some of this weekend’s top stories as a couple of new names emerge in the rumour mill.
The Portuguese contingent at Old Trafford could be set to grow by one if United decide to pursue a move for Leao this summer. And they’ve been encouraged to do after the forward shared his affinity for the club.

The 26-year-old has been linked with United in years gone by without such speculation bearing any fruit. However, the Red Devils may give the idea more thought as Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot could welcome another compatriot to the club.
“Yeah, of course,” he said during an appearance on the Cernucci podcast when asked if United are his favourite Premier League club. “I like United because my idol is Cristiano Ronaldo. So back then, I used to watch them. I like Arsenal also.”
Better yet, it’s suggested the player could be available on a cut-price fee after Milan missed out on Champions League qualification. The Rossoneri lost at home to Cagliari on the final day of the season and finished fifth in Serie A, which was only enough to qualify for the Europa League.
As a result, it’s reported Leao’s asking price could be slashed to as little as £43million, which is half the kind of valuations linked to his signature in the past. United’s wings aren’t believed to be a major priority heading into the transfer window, though Leao has come to be deployed more as a central striker in recent years.

The arrivals of Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo strengthened United’s wide areas significantly last summer. That being said, the departures of Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho mean the left flank in particular could perhaps do with some reinforcement.

Osimhen dubbed ‘dream signing’
United legend Patrice Evra has named Victor Osimhen as the one name he would bring to Old Trafford above all others this summer. Benjamin Sesko demonstrated significant progress over the course of his debut campaign at United but Evra wants to see more striker options at his old club.

Galatasaray spent a Turkish-record fee of around £65m to sign the Nigeria frontman last summer following a successful loan from Napoli. In addition to his supposed £250,000-a-week wages, another obstacle relates to reports that Gala have put a £130m asking price on their star.
Nonetheless, Evra believes his former employers should break the bank to sign one of the hottest finishers in Europe. Doing so would be a move straight from the Sir Alex Ferguson handbook as Carrick looks to fire his team to the next level.
“Osimhen. I have all due respect for Galatasaray, the love he gets there and what the player is like,” Evra told Goal. “Man United need a proper striker, and I have so much respect for the strikers at Man United, sometimes [Bryan] Mbuemo. But back in the day, we had four amazing strikers, and if you want to play every competition, you need more strikers.

“Of course, you need some defenders, like an extra left-back, because you could have an injury and a right-back. Of course, Casemiro is leaving, so you need to replace those players. To name one player, I say Osimhen because I know these guys can make the difference.”
Admittedly, there were portions of last term when United looked light up top, such as when Sesko was injured in late 2025. The likes of Cunha and Mbeumo each had trial runs leading the attack during that period but neither looked a natural fit in the role.
Osimhen helped Galatasaray retain the Super Lig crown this season despite a less prolific campaign by his standards. He finished the campaign with 22 goals and eight assists in 33 games all competitions, having seen his progress impeded by several injury setbacks.
In a post on its Facebook page, the business claimed people entered the premises, caused damage and attempted to steal machinery.
The fishery alleged that baby chicks hatched from its chickens were taken and killed during the incident.
Owners also reported that a DeWalt circular saw was stolen and said attempts were made to take other machinery, although these were unsuccessful.

Bradshaw Hall Fisheries said police officers attended the site on Sunday to review CCTV footage and that further action was expected.
The business posted: “Baby chicks that have been hatched out from our chickens have been taken and killed, a DeWalt circular saw was taken and they attempted to take other machinery but failed.
“The police have been to the fishery today to review the footage and further action is due to be taken.”

The fishery appealed for anyone with information about those involved to get in touch directly.

The mystery of the Emmerdale arsonist has been baffling locals.
It’s been such a weird thing to do – at first, everyone thought some unidentified Moira hater was starting each blaze. When it became clear she was never the target, the whole motive was lost. Why burn the barns?
It has transpired that rather than setting light to the barns he was sheltering in them – he was homeless. The petrol he had was to burn his car for insurance.
This arsonist is no criminal mastermind – they might be running rings around everyone despite running rings around everyone, but Graham Foster (Andrew Scarborough) is about to catch them out.
Salty about losing his home and his family’s stability, Kyle is taking his own revenge, but it’s turning him into a pyromaniac.
Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) is all over the place and his hit and miss parenting is leading to the pyrotechnics. When he turns down spending time with his son, Kyle is disappointed and unsure of how to cope with these increasing feelings of abandonment.
Graham finds Kyle’s car bruning (Picture: ITV)
Cain is angry to find Kyle skipping school and moans to Kammy that Kyle is too fixated on sorting the Golf – their shared car restoration project. Kyle feels awful about this, he thought he and his dad had a lovely thing going.
So, the Golf becomes the collateral damage to his teenage angst as he turns to his new obsession of burning things.

Graham finds Kyle watching the car ablaze and dives in to save him. Then he realises Kyle was the one who did it.
He’s furious with the lad but quickly softens when Kyle explains why. It’s not long before the smoke signal is spotted and others come running, forcing Kyle to hide. If Graham protects him, this could turn into a bigger storyline of Kyle’s pyromania.
Will Cain work out what his son is up to, and that he’s partly to blame?
Donald Trump’s physician says the president is in “excellent health” and is “fully fit” to serve as commander in chief after a medical exam Tuesday at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
A report from Dr. Sean Barbabella, released late Friday, says Trump underwent a CT scan and other heart imaging along with cancer screenings and other preventative assessments carried out by 22 specialists.
Trump, 79, said after the visit Tuesday that everything checked out “PERFECTLY.”
The president weighed in at 238 pounds (108 kilograms), up 14 pounds (6 kg) from a medical exam in April 2025. His doctors gave him guidance on his diet, physical activity and weight loss, but concluded his “cognitive and physical performance are excellent.”
PARIS (AP) — There will be a new men’s champion at the French Open after Novak Djokovic followed Jannik Sinner out of Roland Garros in a five-set stunner on Friday.
Brazilian teenager Joao Fonseca beat 24-time major winner Djokovic 4-6, 4-6, 6-3, 7-5, 7-5 in the third round to follow Thursday’s huge upset, when No. 1 Sinner — last year’s runner-up lost to 56th-ranked Juan Manuel Cerundolo.
“Ten minutes after the match I could realize a little bit what I did, what I achieved,” the 19-year-old Fonseca said. “How difficult it was and how amazing it was for me.”
Djokovic’s latest quest for a record 25th Grand Slam singles title was ended and it was just the second time he lost from two sets up, the other also coming in Paris in 2010.

Along with Daniil Medvedev, Marin Cilic and Stan Wawrinka, all the men’s major winners are out, thus guaranteeing that a new pair of hands will raise the Coupe des Mousquetaires trophy aloft on June 7 on Court Philippe-Chatrier.
“Of course, Jannik and Djokovic out, there’s more chances,” said Fonseca, who next faces two-time runner-up Casper Ruud, who beat Tommy Paul 4-6, 6-7 (4), 6-4, 7-6 (4), 7-5.
Second-seeded Alexander Zverev, the 2024 runner-up, also advanced to the fourth round with a 6-4, 6-3, 5-7, 6-2 win late Friday over Frenchman Quentin Halys.
The 39-year-old Djokovic faded as the court slowed in the evening cool.

“Tough one for me to lose,” Djokovic said. “I was barely standing on my legs toward the end of the match.”
In the final game, Djokovic had a break point for 6-6 but Fonseca served out with three consecutive aces and became the first teenager to beat Djokovic at a Grand Slam tournament.
“I just enjoyed being on court and what a pleasure it was. It’s my first stepping on court against him,” Fonseca said. “We still think he’s 20. At the end of the match I think he was more fit than me, that’s crazy.”
Fonseca wished his mother in the crowd happy birthday and thanked all the Brazilians who turned up to watch.

Djokovic doubts
This wasn’t as big an upset as Sinner’s loss because Djokovic came to Paris with doubts.
After he lost the Australian Open final to Carlos Alcaraz, a shoulder injury limited his clay-court buildup to one competitive match and Djokovic labored for at least three hours in each of his previous two rounds before facing the full fury of Fonseca’s booming forehand.
“Taking everything in consideration and all the circumstances, I think the level was really good,” said Djokovic, whose last major title was the 2024 U.S. Open.
The heat that stressed Sinner also got to Djokovic, who applied ice packs on both sides of his face during changeovers. Djokovic snapped at a television camera operator for getting too close to his face at one point.

By the fifth set he couldn’t hide his fatigue: He hunched over the advertising boards, his forearms dangling; slumped back in his chair with a towel on his head; grabbed his head with his hands.
He was gracious in defeat.
“I told him (after the match) that he deserved to win and he should be proud of himself,” Djokovic said. “We’ve all seen today why there is hype around him.”
Djokovic said he was unsure if he would play at the French Open next year, although he said the same after his semifinal defeat to Sinner last year.

Kostyuk keeps going
Still unbeaten on clay this season, Marta Kostyuk reached the fourth round for the second time and set up a big match against four-time champion Iga Swiatek in the women’s draw.
The 15th-ranked Ukrainian extended her winning streak on clay to 15 matches with a 6-4, 6-3 victory over Viktorija Golubic on yet another hot day in Paris.
She lost to Swiatek in the fourth round in 2021. A rematch is coming up next after Swiatek defeated fellow Polish player Magda Linette 6-4, 6-4.
Swiatek has won in straight sets all three times against Kostyuk and boasts a 43-3 record at Roland Garros.

Seventh-seeded Elina Svitolina was another Ukrainian woman to advance. She beat Tamara Korpatsch 6-2, 6-3.
A dominant win
Also advancing was 36-year-old Sorana Cirstea, who routed Solana Sierra and became the oldest player in the Open Era to claim a 6-0, 6-0 win in a Grand Slam tournament. She next faces China’s Wang Xiyu, who has still not dropped a set.
Eighth-seeded Mirra Andreeva progressed with a 6-4, 6-2 win against Czech opponent Marie Bouzkova and leads the women’s tour with 32 victories this season.

For those troubled by overheating during the warmer months, spring and summer can bring numerous restless nights tossing and turning. Investing in a new cooling duvet could help people settle into sleep more comfortably.
Simba is a well-regarded bedding brand at the cutting edge of innovative cooling sleep technology. The company offers a carefully curated range of specialist duvets, including its Hybrid Duvet, priced between £139 and £259 depending on whether shoppers choose single, double, king or super king sizes.
The Hybrid Duvet carries a 10.5 tog rating and is described as lightweight yet luxurious. It boasts a breathable cotton cover alongside Stratos technology, which can render the fabric up to 3°C cooler than conventional materials, producing a refreshingly cool surface.
This design seeks to prevent heat accumulation while drawing moisture away – ensuring sleepers remain drier, more comfortable, and sustain an optimal temperature throughout the night. Simba’s Hybrid Duvet features square stitching to stop the filling from clumping, and is machine-washable (provided the appliance is sufficiently large).
Those with a more substantial budget for bedding may wish to consider the Simba Hybrid 3-in-1 Duvet, priced between £249 and £449 depending on whether customers require single, double, king or super king sizes. The duvet comprises multiple layers, including 7 tog and 3.5 tog options; when combined, they form a 10.5 tog duvet that’s ideal for chillier months, reports Bristol Live.
The duvet is designed to allow plenty of airflow through the duvet for drier warmth.

Meanwhile, Dunelm is currently offering 20% off the Fogarty Temperature Balance 10.5 Tog Duvet, now£33.60 to £44.80, reduced from £42 to £56. It’s available in single, double, king and super king sizes.
Over at Amazon, shoppers can find an offer on the Slumberdown Cool Summer Nights 4.5 Tog Duvet, starting from £15.99. The duvet incorporates soft, moisture-wicking fibres that enhance airflow and assist with body temperature regulation.
The Simba Hybrid Duvet has established itself as a bestseller, achieving a 5-star customer satisfaction rating from over 17,000 reviews. One purchaser enthused: “So happy for my duvet, sleeping like a baby. I don’t feel cold or hot, it’s very amazing. Everybody needs to have it and feel amazing like me.”
Another satisfied customer wrote: “The best choice I could have made. I had a lot of duvets, but this one I love: not too cold, not too hot, with a feeling that it wraps you very nicely. It’s perfect, now I sleep like a baby. I would definitely buy it again. No doubt worth the price.”
Not all customers were won over, however, with one buyer commenting on the rustling sound of the material: “The duvet is comfortable, it feels a good weight which I like.
“The only issue I have with it is that it is quite noisy, sounding like it is plastic and rustles whenever I move it, which can wake me up.”
Another purchaser had a far more positive experience, writing: “Best decision I’ve made this year! Felt instant differences, and by day three, I’ve slept like a baby – no more aches and pains in the morning. I don’t feel my partner moving around and getting out of bed early. Pure perfection.”
A fifth reviewer noted: “Very comfy, warm temperature, and great spread of thickness. Great investment; would recommend to anyone looking for high-quality comfort. It might get a bit warm in the hotter months, which is my only other point.”
Meanwhile, one final customer concluded: “The weight of the duvet is so nice! It’s comforting and cosy but never too warm.”
