This year I am trying elderflower cordial. I have made elderflower champagne before but this is a lot faster and less involved. It captures the essence of the flower, without making a song and dance of it. Currently picking gooseberries which are enhanced by a good glug of this.
Nice, but I long to see your beautiful lobelias. Aren't you the Lobelia King?
ReplyDeleteMore Stig of the Dump than king of anything. My lobelias are not going to flower for a couple of weeks yet.
ReplyDeleteMmm, elderflower cordial such a refreshing summer drink. Great song choice, in fact Jamie was singing it yesterday (though compared to Friday it feels more like ‘there goes summer’ 😞)
ReplyDeleteWe have a pink flowered elder that makes pink coloured cordial.
