Our Saturday afternoon cocktail is made with elderflower liqueur from Spriteriet – produced very close to where we live. It has e very natural and refreshing flavour – it tastes a lot of elderflower!
In this drink, called the Johanna, vodka is the base. It is unusual for us to fall for these type of drinks, but we thought neutral vodka was perfect to pair the premium elderflower with.
And so it was! The drink became just as refreshing as we’d hoped for. A good summer cocktail indeed!
