Elderflower Cordial

Special thanks to Nancy, aka Lemon Verbena Lady, for her gracious hostess gift of this beautiful bottle of Belvoir fruit farms Elderflower Cordial. Imported from England, this cordial is a naturally lovely infusion of flowers and fresh lemon, prepared with fresh elderflowers, real lemon juice and sugar. We recently celebrated our Queen's Tea, where we mixed the cordial with champagne and happily toasted the Queen. The fresh flavor of this cordial blended perfectly with the champagne. If you have an Aldi's near you, we have heard that it is available there. Otherwise, Amazon is also a source. They have a variety of tempting flavors including an elderflower and rose combination that simply sounds like summer tastes!
And if you're creative and have access to an elderberry bush, friend Marilyn, at Delights of the Heart, shared her experience making her own elderflower cordial. Check out her blog post

Always a pleasure to be with you and I was glad to add a celebratory addition to the Queen's day!

I am still enjoying the elderflower cordial so much. I froze it in small containers, so I just thaw a small container when I want some. It is so delicious and so easy to make. Thanks for the shout out.
