Series 2: 5. Food and the EmpireThe Bikers take a culinary journey through time and celebrate the history of British food.
They explore the impact our colonial past has had on our food. From the chai in their bread and butter pudding to the India pale ale in their sausage casserole, many recipes owe much to the empire. They also explore the history behind gin and tonic as well as Lee and Perrins, both of which arose from our imperial history.
