Elderflower Sparkling Wine Cocktail

As you are here, I’m guessing you enjoy drinking Elderflower flavoured Cocktails, if that is the case then you are in for a treat, because these Cocktails I am making are going to involve Elderflower Sparkling Wine.

Elderflower Sparkling Wine

To help us create our Elderflower Cocktails, we have two of Renegade & Longton’s Elderflower Sparkling Wines.

Brendan and his brother used a family recipe to create their first batch of their Elderflower Sparkling Wine, they now have 20,000 bottles fresh out of production and ready to be enjoyed.

They keep the sourcing of their Elderflowers a closely guarded secret, but they do say, that they harvest in early June, they also need some fruit for their Blush (Rosé) Version, for this, they work with a UK supplier and keep their fruit frozen until the time they make their wine.
