Fantastic aperitif version of the Hugo is 50 ml bianco vermouth, 10 ml St Germain or elderflower syrup. Muddle mint and elderflower lightly in gin balloon. Add ice, vermouth, lime wedge (squeeze and drop in), top with soda. Refreshing, low ABV.

I enjoyed the Peruvian Elder Sour I made last night.

My favorite is the Apparent Sour. 2 parts aperol, 1 part St. Germain, 1 part lime juice. Tall collins glass with ice. Essential to garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary. Delightful low alcohol content drink.

Many thanks, Michael. I'll add the Apparent Sour to Difford's Guide in the coming weeks.

My favorite elderflower cocktail is... the Elder Sour!
I think you should give yourself some more credit for this beauty Simon and put in on the list.

Esmerelda says tequila instead of cachaca in the title. Delicious with the correct ingredient!
