Zubereitung von Elderflower Liqueur
- Gently pick approximately 10-12 large elderflower heads, ensuring they are free from insects and blemishes. Discard any brown or damaged flowers.
- Place the elderflower heads in a clean, sterilized 1-liter jar.
- Pour 700ml of high-quality vodka over the flowers, ensuring they are completely submerged. Leave no air pockets.
- (Optional) To keep the flowers submerged, place a smaller, clean jar lid upside down on top of the flowers.
- Securely close the jar with an airtight lid.
- Store the jar in a cool, dark place for at least 1 week, up to 1 month. Shake gently daily.
- After the infusion period, double strain the mixture using a fine-mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth, followed by an unbleached coffee filter to remove any remaining flower particles.
- Add 200g of granulated sugar to the filtered liquid. Stir until completely dissolved.
- Bottle your liqueur. Shake occasionally until the sugar is fully dissolved. Allow to mature for an additional 2-4 weeks before enjoying.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature in a cordial glass. Enjoy!
