\"elderflowersyrup_title\"<\/a><\/p>\n

the fragrance of elderflower is in the air. while elderflower seems to be a very ordinary scrub, that grows like weed where-ever you put a branch into the ground, the smell and taste of the blossoms are surprisingly delicate. and by preparing some elderflower syrup you will be able to preserve this delicate fragrance until next year\u00b4s blossom.<\/p>\n

combined with sparkling water the elderflower syrup will be the perfect refreshing drink for \u00a0hot summer afternoons. and in the evenings, combined with sparkling wine, cr\u00e9mant or champagne, it turns into a light aperitif.<\/p>\n

\"elderflowersyrup_frontal\"<\/a>15-20 elderflowers
\n50 g citric acid
\n2 1\/2 lemons
\n2 liter water
\n1 1\/2-2 kg sugar<\/p>\n

collect the elderflowers and take only very clean and nice ones because you should not wash them, otherwise they would loose their intensive taste.<\/p>\n

pour the elderflowers together with the citric acid in a large bowl. wash the lemons and cut them into slices. add the lemon slices and the water. cover and let it rest for 24 hours.<\/p>\n

after 24 hours, pour everything through a fine sieve which you lined with a kitchen towel before. repeat once or twice to get a very clear syrup without any suspended particles. add the sugar and stir until all the sugar has been dissolved. cover and let it rest for another 24 hours.<\/p>\n

on the next day your done. you only have to fill the syrup into bottles or jars. if you store the syrup in your fridge or in any other cool place like your cellar, it will be best until next spring.<\/p>\n
