Christmas Elderflower & Elderberry Class
The humble Elderflower and it's dark purple berries have been used for centuries as drinks, food and herbal medicines.
Today we celebrate this wonderful plant by eating, drinking, cooking and generally enjoying it in a multitude of delicious forms.
What can you expect?
Begin the afternoon with an elderflower mocktail. What a lovely way to celebrate Christmas early.
Learn about the ways to grow this delectable plant and the cautions behind both growing and using it.
Create three elderflower and elderberry delights to take home including Elderberry Jam; Elderberry Cordial and Elderflower champagne. These match the season so well with depth of flavour, colour and festive bubbles.
You'll also taste the joys of other elderflower recipes that I make often when they are in season at the Elderflower focussed afternoon tea from fine bone china cups and teapots.
Bring a friend and enjoy your early Christmas celebration without Jingle Bells or commercial Christmas baubles. Just home grown deliciousness.
So treat yourself and book your spot now for this lovely afternoon. It’s just for 13 people and I expect with the interest in Elderflowers, that this one will book out quickly.
Worried about the summer heat? If it's hot we will be indoors in an airconditioned room for most of the time.
