This gin and elderflower cocktail is another popular choice on our balcony this summer!
1 shot gin
1 shot apple juice
2 t elderflower cordial
lime
ice
We use Tanqueray or Bombay Sapphire gin. The botanicals in your gin will affect the taste of the cocktail, so use a good quality gin!
Fill
a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the vodka, Cointreau, a shot or so of
cranberry juice, and a squeeze of lime. Shake the heck out of it.
Strain it into a martini glass, top it off with a bit more cranberry
juice and another squeeze of lime. - See more at:

I make my own elderflower cordial, but once my homemade stash runs out, it's available in nearly every grocery store here in Denmark. I don't recall ever hearing of elderflower cordial when I lived in the States, but I've heard it's available at IKEA, and I suspect you might also be able to find it at Whole Foods.
I promise you this cocktail is totally worth the hassle of tracking down the cordial...Labels: recipes, vegan, vegetarian
