Elderflower Lemonade

A simple chilled lemonade built by stirring lemon juice, elderflower syrup, and cold water, then serving it over ice with lemon slices. The drink is clear, fragrant, and tart-sweet with a floral finish.

Ingredients

• 90 ml Fresh lemon juice Juiced and strained if desired
• 45 ml Elderflower syrup Ready to use
• 240 ml Cold water Chilled
• 240 g Ice For serving
• 4 piece Lemon slices Thinly sliced

Instructions

1. Juice the lemons to yield 90 ml lemon juice. Add the lemon juice, 45 ml elderflower syrup, and 240 ml cold water to a small pitcher or mixing jug. Stir well until fully combined. The drink looks evenly mixed and the syrup is no longer pooled at the bottom.
2. Fill 2 glasses with 120 g ice each. Divide the lemonade between the glasses and top each with 2 lemon slices. The glasses are cold, the drink is bright and chilled, and the lemon slices float or rest at the rim.
