Elderberry syrup
Description
Elderberry syrup is a spring speciality with a unique, floral aroma. It's perfect for flavouring refreshing drinks, but also for delicately spicing up desserts, such as fruit salad or panna cotta. I inherited this recipe from my great-aunt, and it remains a family tradition that I'm happy to share.
