The Elder (Sambucus Nigra), with its flat-topped masses of creamy-white fragrant blossoms, followed by large drooping bunches of purplish-black, juicy berries, is a familiar object in English countryside and gardens. In England, it has been said, that summer is not here until the Elder is fully in flower, and that it ends when the berries are ripe. Elder Flowers (and Elder Berries) have long been used for making many home-made drinks. The effects of elder flowers are: alternative, diaphoretic, anti-inflammatory and anti-catarrhal. The New Culinary Trend is Flourishing. Its powerful flowery aroma will allow you to create meals, hot and frozen drinks as well as cocktails for an original result that will seduce and astonish your guests : a few drops in a cup of Champagne, in a white spirit based cocktail or simply with fruits juices (cranberry, pineapple) or on top of vanilla ice cream.
