Chase GB Escapes Spritz
Suns out, elderflowers are blooming, this little slice of summer won't last long so get out there and pick some elderflower!
This week on @sundaybrunchc4 I’m making drinks you can seriously impress your BBQ guests with and the best thing is that you can batch it all ahead of time.
Today is all about foraged Elderdlower and @chase_distillery GB dry gin. We are making our Meadow Spritz.
On a hot and sunny day head out and pick 15 heads of fresh elderflower, ensuring you are away from any main roads.
To make serves for 20 people:
In a large tupperware in the fridge combine elderflower heads with 2 bottles of dry white wine, preferably a Torrotes but a floral Pinot Gris would work wonderfully, allow to infuse for 2 days in the fridge. After infusing, strain out the elderflower and add to your 2 bottles of Elderflower wine:
125ml white creme de cacao
250ml Chase GB Dry Gin (12.5ml per serve)
60ml fresh lemon juice
20 white grape sliced up
5 sprigs of fresh mint
To serve, add 100ml to a large wine glass with 50ml of chilled soda water. Garnish with fresh elderflower if its still around!
[1.7 units per serve]
For a single serve:
100ml elderflower wine
12ml creme de cacao
20ml chase GB dry gin
5ml fresh lemon juice
50ml soda water
Garnish with fresh grapes and elderflower or mint
If you cant get your hands on fresh elderflower, or you see this post a few weeks too late, you are in luck, as you can use @chase_distillery ‘s Elderflower Gin. This is the perfect drink to enjoy when the sun is shining out in the garden with all your pals marveling at your foraging skills!
