Elderflower Champagne

 

Ingredients

2 heads of elderflower
1 1/2 lb white sugar
2 tbsp white-wine vinegar
1 gal water
1 lemon



 

Preparation

Pick the Elderflower heads when in full bloom and put into a bowl
followed by the lemon juice, cut up rind (no white pith), sugar and
vinegar. Add the cold water and leave for 24 hours. Strain into
strong bottles, cork firmly and lay them on their sides. After two
weeks it should be ready to drink.

This is a summer drink, rather like lemonade.
