With the blistering heat this week I took the opportunity to collect some of the last elderflower at the university.
My in-laws make a cracking elderflower pop, but I went with the easy option of cordial.
Still plenty of elderflower about if you look. Simply steep a bunch of the flowers in boiled water for a day. Add a load of sugar and lemon juice. Give it a good old strain, and you’re done!
