Elderflower Cordial

For a couple of weeks every June, the hedgerows along the lane near us froth over with creamy, flat-topped elderflowers, and the whole verge smells of warm honey and muscat. It is a brief, almost embarrassingly fragrant window, and if you miss it you miss it for a year. So every June I take a bag and a pair of scissors on an evening walk, come home with an armful of blossom, and turn it into a year’s worth of summer in a bottle.
