1
Pop 20g of dried elderflowers and the zest of two unwaxed lemons (a microplane fine grater is good for this) into a saucepan and cover with apple juice (approx. 300ml from a one litre carton).

2
Bring to the boil, then take off the heat and leave to steep for 30 mins covered.

3
Strain infused juice through a sieve lined with a muslin, then squeeze out as much juice as you can from the muslin.

4
Add the remaining apple juice from the carton and the juice of half to one lemon (to taste).

5
Drink as a juice or serve with sparkling water (two parts juice to one part sparkling water).

Cawston Tip:
Add a drop of gin to this, to make a glorious drink for a summer’s evening.
