making summer drinks with lilac syrup

Elizabeth Clayton Wester

“Pick the flowers in full bloom and full sun for maximum floral flavor. Good in a g&t or just with tonic, or diluted with water for kids (saft in Swedish.) Dark purple lilacs give the best color but light purple ones the most flavor! Linked to not the exact recipe I used, but close enough (I used juice and flesh from about 3 lemons, 750ml water and 750g sugar)”
