In my opinion, there’s no better activity than making cordial from flowers you’ve picked! Especially when it tastes as delicious as flowing currant cordial. Sweet, pink, slightly herbal, refreshing and so simple.
Ingredients & Method
All you’ll need is 1 cupful (or one big / adult handful) of flowers. You don’t need to pick the flowers off individually, you can pinch off the whole drooping cluster. When you’re home, pop it in a pan with 1 cup of water and 1 cup of white sugar. Simply simmer until a nice runny syrup consistency is formed (about 15 minutes).
When it’s cool, pour into a sterilised jar or bottle.
When you’re ready to drink it, mix it up with water and pop in a few beautiful flower ice cubes!
