Elderflower cordial time. Recipe attached.
Went with Rafi to collect Elderflowers to make elderflower cordial. We've done it for the last couple of years and we love it. Unfortunatley I thought we had citric acid in, but we haven't so have to wait until tomorrow to make it. Here's the recipe:
30 large Elderflowers, shaken to free from insects
6 lemons
2oz citric acid (Wilkinsons sell it)
2lb granulated sugar
3 pints boiling water
Put everything in a plastic bucket. Pour over boiling water. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Leave for 24 hours and strain through muslin or clean J cloth into sterilised bottle.
Serve with fizzy water,cheap champagne or cider. Delicious!
