The weekend is upon us and what a great way to start it with these wonderful elderflower G & T’s. If you are as crazy about G & T’s as us, but also appreciate a little change once in a while, you will like this variant with elderflower that still tastes like gin and tonic but with a fresh and sweet twist.
Have a great weekend soon everyone!
