Amber's Styling Tip — Lilac & Elderflower Gin Garden Cocktail

I am very much an amateur when it comes to cocktails, but I love making them — and this one has been tried, tested and received zero complaints. The floral, honeyed notes of elderflower paired with the delicate, slightly bitter scent of fresh lilac is such a gorgeous spring combination. I picked up the elderflower heads at the farmer's market and used alongside my own lilac blossoms as a garnish (which is my favourite part of the process!) Perfect for a garden tablescape moment with all the girls over. The quantities below are what I used for our crystal coupe glasses, and were increased for the larger glasses.

Ingredients

40ml dry gin, (I used Tanqueray) · 20ml Bacanha Elderflower Syrup · 20ml freshly squeezed lemon juice · 1–2 small fresh elderflower heads, washed · couple of pinches of lilac blossoms (washed + stems removed) · Soda water or tonic to top (approx. 30–50ml) · Lots of ice.

To make

Chill a highball or coupe glass with ice. Add the gin, elderflower syrup and lemon juice to a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake vigorously until the shaker feels cold. Strain into your chilled glass over fresh ice. Top with soda water or tonic water and garnish with fresh lilac blossoms, a lemon twist and elderflower clusters.
