Making the elderflower champagne

elderflower champagne June 14 1

I've been away for a few days but before I headed off, I picked a large quantity of elderflower to make elderflower champagne. It went into a large fermentation bucket with sugar, vinegar and lemon juice and has been brewing over the weekend. When I get back, it will go into bottles where it will complete its fermentation. The first bottles can be opened after just a few weeks though we still have some from last year to use up.
