Blowing Bubbles

What other blog takes you from shit to champagne in successive posts? 

 Back here: June 24th I made some elderflower champagne. I bottled it a week later and left it for a generous 4 weeks before sampling.  Would it be bubbly???


Would it hell!


Something suitable to celebrate Olympic gold.


...or any other excuse


It tastes really refreshing, and the elderflower aroma is so delicate.  It seems you can bottle it!

  1. That looks wonderful! I meant to make some this year but finding a rain-free window to go out and gather elderflowers was quite a challenge this year!

  5. Wow! That's pretty impressive - shame elderflower champagne probably doesn't have the same healing properties as elderflower tea!!!
