1lb sugar to one pint water, 10-15 flowers (shaken of beasties) will infuse in this syrupy mix with a lemon for 24-48 hours. Strain and bottle add a pinch if citric acid if required to taste.

Let the foraged flower cordial making finally begin!
Finally, 300 miles south of my normal residence, I've foraged some elderflowers for cordial making. The syrups cooling as I type ready to dook said flowers for a swim.
1lb sugar to one pint water, 10-15 flowers (shaken of beasties) will infuse in this syrupy mix with a lemon for 24-48 hours. Strain and bottle add a pinch if citric acid if required to taste.
