Artichoke Hold
The elderflower is dominated by the other less subtle flavours in this big-flavoured, sweet 'n' sour cocktail

Lovely drink. Sweet and tart. Made this for a large group of people and everyone enjoyed it. Cynar is a favorite of mine and it really finds its place in this drink. I used a little bit less of the Saint Germain though as I find the perfuminess can get a bit much.
