4 1/2 lb of Sugar
8 Lemons
60 Elderflower Heads
4 oz of Citric Acid
3 L of boiling water
I doubled this recipe, as I do every year.
I put the sugar in a large pan , poured the boiling water over it and stirred till dissolved.
Then I added the Elderflower heads.
Left to cool
Grated the lemons and added them to the sugar water.
I cut the lemons up quite chunky and added them to the sugar water.
I then added the citric acid , stirred well.
I covered it with clean muslin, left it for 48 hrs
I then strained it through a sieve and muslin into a clean tub, then bottled it.
Is there a way I can de gas it, if that's a word! Lol
