Elder-flower Vinegar No 3 Recipe

Pick the flowers before they are too much blown from the stalks, and dry

them in the sun, but not when it is very hot. Put a handful of them to a

quart of the best white wine vinegar, and let it stand a fortnight.

Strain and draw it off, and put it into a cask, keeping out about a

quart. Make it very hot, and put it into your cask to produce

fermentation. Stop it very close, and draw it off when wanted.
