Sweet Blossom Cocktail - An Elixir that will draw Love to You, Like Bees to Honey

The elderflowers are picked in the Alps and transformed into a nectar that will draw happiness and love to you, like bees to honey. So how does Elderflower taste? A little like asking a hummingbird to describe the flavor of its favorite nectar. It’s a little like pear, or sweet grapefruit, or honeysuckle – subtle and delicate yet captivating.
St Germain is the first liqueur in the world created in the artisanal French manner from freshly handpicked elderflower blossoms.

Sweet Blossom

12 oz Champagne
11 oz Soda Water
9.5 oz St Germain Eldeflour Liqueur
1 Lemon Wheel
1 Lime Wheel
1 Orange Wheel
Pour all ingredients into 36 oz carafe. Float the fruit wheels in the carafe. Serve over Ice. Makes 6 servings

St. Germain is one of my favorites. I was introduced to it last year and have been addicted ever since. Just fantastic.

Summertime... and the drinking is easy

But when I hear elderberry anything, i think of the sweet old ladies in "Arsenic and old lace".
