Cucumber & Elderflower G&T

Why this recipe is amazing

Flavour: Fresh, fruity and floral all in one!

Difficulty & Time: Easy as pour, stir and drink!

Versatility: Try different varieties of gin and tonic water. Add more or less elderflower to your preference.

What ingredients are needed

Elderflower Syrup/Cordial: Fresh, fruity, slightly floral flavour that has a tropic, lychee and pear vibe. It is readily available at many grocery stores..

Gin: I prefer a citrus heavy gin like FourPillars but play around and see what you prefer! Its a nice excuse to make it again 😛

Cucumber: Fresh, crisp cucumber is amazing here. It adds real refreshing flavour and perfectly compliments the sweetness and floral flavour of the other ingredients.

Orange: I use Naval oranges but anything in season will do! If you’d like to add some extra orange flavour, feel free to add a squeeze of juice into the mix.

Ice: Lots! We like a cold drink around these parts, especially on a hot day. I prefer larger cubes rather than crushed but you do you.

Tonic water: I prefer a sugar free tonic water on most occasions. Its not widely know but tonic water has ALOT of sugar in it to balance the extreme bitterness from the bark in which it is made from. You can go fancy or stay with a grocery store brand but stay with an unflavoured variety.
