I'm busily making my first batch of elderflower cordial :-D

I like the old-fashionedness of it and the idea that my kids will maybe carry on the old rural traditions as a matter of course :-)

Um...where do you get elderflowers? Is it alcoholic? And when are you going to post a mini scene?

*thinking of summer days and dandelion wine....*

They're the flowers of the elder bush, sambucus nigra and no, it's not alcoholic, although it's very nice as a mixer for gin :-)

Heck, I haven't been doing any mini work for *ages* - too much going on in the garden, for one thing. And elderberry cordial to make! LOL

Guess I'll have to wait for winter then....
