Here in Oxfordshire the sun finally began to shine and the elderflowers have begun a tad later this year to flower. As usual I rush out to begin to make the first elderflower cordial so that by the last flush of flowers I am out there again making some in reserve for later in the year.

Let me know if you make some of if you have great elderflower tips for me, it is lovely added to Prosecco too or for those less boozy days with sparkling water...
