I loved this. I made a double recipe as written and served in a punch bowl for a couples bridal shower. It was very festive, elegant and a wonderful ice breaker. Most guests had not heard of Elderflower liquor so it was a nice conversation starter. It also tasted great just mixed with a little OJ and club soda when all the other ingredients ran out. I’ll make again for a special occasion — it would be way too expensive to make regularly!
