Ingredients
Scale
- 30 elderflower blossoms, washed
- 12.5 cups (3 l) water

- Sink clean flowers into 3 litres of water and leave covered for 24 h. The next day, strain it through a fine (dense) sieve or cloth. Discard the flowers and take the juice.
- Now simply add 3 kg sugar and 80 g citric acid to it and stir until everything dissolves. Pour into sterilized glass bottles and keep in fridge. You need to keep it in your fridge, because no conservans is used.
- Some versions cook the juice with sugar until it boils, remove from heat, let cool a bit and then add citric acid. This way the syrup will last a bit longer, but trust me-you’ll run out of it quite fast, it’s delicious!
