Elderflower Syrup – Cordial

June 9, 2011 by Lois Britton Leave a Comment

We tried out the elderflower syrup today.  I strained the mixture by lining my strainer with a paper towel (coffee filter or layers of cheesecloth should work too), and I’m keeping it in the fridge.

We mixed the syrup with sparking water and sparkling wine.  Ed and I both thought both tasted great, very refreshing.  This glass probably holds just over half a cup.  Add the syrup to taste.  Ed’s thinking 1 tablespoon for a manly mix, 2 or more might make it a little girlie.  It made our very cheap, not all that drinkable sparkling wine very tasty!
