Comment préparer Elderflower Liqueur

  1. Gently pick approximately 10-12 large elderflower heads, ensuring they are free from insects and blemishes. Discard any brown or damaged flowers.
  2. Place the elderflower heads in a clean, sterilized 1-liter jar.
  3. Pour 700ml of high-quality vodka over the flowers, ensuring they are completely submerged. Leave no air pockets.
  4. (Optional) To keep the flowers submerged, place a smaller, clean jar lid upside down on top of the flowers.
  5. Securely close the jar with an airtight lid.
  6. Store the jar in a cool, dark place for at least 1 week, up to 1 month. Shake gently daily.
  7. 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.
  8. Add 200g of granulated sugar to the filtered liquid. Stir until completely dissolved.
  9. Bottle your liqueur. Shake occasionally until the sugar is fully dissolved. Allow to mature for an additional 2-4 weeks before enjoying.
  10. Serve chilled or at room temperature in a cordial glass. Enjoy!
