This is amazingly good! It's the perfect refreshing drink for a hot Texas afternoon, sitting in the shade of the mesquites.

I’d love to try this, any recommendations for a comparable American apple juice?

If I had my druthers, I would swing by our local orchard for cider.

I'm gonna reserve judgement on this one as my apple juice had been open in the fridge well beyond ten days and the resulting drink needed rescueing. A healthy glug of tonic water and additional lime juice saved the day. Quite nice really!

How can I make this drink look like the nice green color in the photo? Apple juice/cider is a dark amber color and elderflower liqueur is a golden yellow.

I really like this - great balance, cucumber garnish strongly fragrant. With good apple juice it's not too sweet and has a lightness that belies its sizeable kick. Great summer drink to be enjoyed in any season!

A good, if uninspiring drink. Apple and elderflower to the fore, with a satisfying piney, juniper aftertaste of the gin. Also, the appearance was very brown due to the apple juice. I wonder if I made any mistakes.
