Cordials

It's that time of year. Elder blossom is everywhere. We bottled the delicious smell in syrup again.  The stamp used for the labels was one of the first hand carved stamps I've made. Obvious when you look closely. It doesn't fit these adhesives, but half the stamp still looks pretty ok. Unfortunately my kids don't like sweet drinks, so it's up to others to finish all those bottles of syrup. I searched for elder flower cocktails on Pinterest. Lot's of lovely drinks came up. Look!

Heerlijk, ik heb het ook al gemaakt. Ik schrijf de plekjes op waar ze staan, straks als de bessen rijp zijn zie je het niet meer!

Kristel, the "national" cocktail of Suedtirol is the Hugo: Elderflower cordial, prosecco, soda water and crushed melissa or mint leaves and/or a wedge of lemon. It's heavenly.
