art trail fun & pink drinks...

I  had such a lovely time Art Trailing, catching up with people, seeing friends new work and visiting some fantastic venues with my children (although by the end of my third visit to the 'Wonky House' I felt I had 'done' it...)

Photos will have to wait for another day though because most excitingly of all, my elder flower cordial IS pink...

...what could be more pleasing??  I can't think of much...

Another favourite of ours is to freeze Borage flowers inside ice cubes, the sweetest ice cube you can imagine, and when these are in season this year they will be the perfect addition to the pink Elder flower cordial to create the girliest summer drink possible - contented sigh -

Love the colour of the Elder flower cordial, I will have to try and make some Borage ice cubes.

The cordial looks fantastic. If you put Barage ice cubes in a gin & tonic the flowers change from blue to pink! Very satisfying x

Great tip about the gin and tonic Karen, any excuse for a G&T - now I know it's actually a science experiment...
