I drink elderflower liqueur and Prosecco all the time, but I've never thought of adding lemon! I can't wait to try this

What a pretty cocktail! I love the idea of making this to celebrate Harry and Meghan's wedding. The flavors seem perfect.

Firstly I love cocktails. I think I will like this one. Cheers to Prince Harry and Meghan! I see Elderflower is the "flavor of the day" on the 19th. This was a nice idea and well done to the Recipelion team for coming up with this theme. Wedding or not I will certainly make this cocktail.

It is almost Royal wedding time. Just another week or so and we can all be right in the action. I still remember watching the wedding of Princess Di and Chaz. This recipe serves only one so you might want to make a large batch at once so you dont have to miss any of the coverage. This would be great for a formal brunch also.
