Recipe - Dandelion Cordial
Not just a weed but also a delicious drink.
Pick, or let the children pick, a big pot of dandelion flowers. They should be wide open.
Rinse them as you would do with salad.
Put them in a bowl and cover with water. Add the juice and zest of 2 lemons and leave to soak.
Boil for ¼ of an hour. Add 800g of sugar and stir well to dissolve.
Leave to infuse overnight, strain and bottle. Drink straight away or keep for up to 2 months.
Serve with sparkling water and enjoy.
