Export 3 ingredients for grocery delivery
Step 1
Check elderflowers for dirt and little insects - don't wash!
Step 2
Add elderflowers, lemon slices and citric acid to the water in a big pan. (The only ingredient not yet going in is the sugar)
Step 3
Heat up to boiling point, stirring occasionally, remove from heat, cover and let infuse overnight, or for at least four hours.
Step 4
Strain the liquid through a muslin cloth, to catch all the flowers. Squeeze all that yummy flavour out of the pulp in the muslin!
Step 5
Return liquid to the pan and add the sugar.
Step 6
Bring to boil again, stirring frequently to dissolve all the sugar, and simmer for 5 minutes.
Step 7
In the meantime, sterilise some glass bottles (don't forget about the lids!) with boiling water. If you are going to use a funnel or any other pouring aid, sterilise that, too.
Step 8
Bottle up the finished cordial while it's still boiling hot.
Step 9
Depending on desired sweetness, dilute 1:5 to 1:10.
Step 10
Best enjoyed with sparkling mineral water.
Step 11
Optional: Squeeze in some fresh lemon for extra tanginess!
