20 Elderflower heads
3 & half pound sugar
3 pint boiled water, cooled
2 oz tartaric acid
2 sliced lemons

Put all the ingredients in a large pan & stir periodically for 24 hours, then strain & bottle.
Dilute to taste with water or fizzy mineral water
It is ready to drink immediately, but will keep for several months if kept in fridge, or it can be frozen to keep longer.
Enjoy.
