I was out of elderflower unfortunately so I made this with Brerentzen apple schnapps and St. George’s pear brandy and it was amazing can’t wait to try it with the elderflower. The rosemary is the key, goes perfect with the pear and apple.

I tipped it up with elderflower tonic water, instead of soda water

Sounds delicious! I'm sure Colin, the drink's creator, would approve.
