Sparkling Elderflower Wine - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    10 bunches elderberry flowers (an umbel is a flower cluster all starting from the same point, literally a little umbrella)
    1 lemon
    350 ml water
    8 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
    4 tablespoons honey
    1 lemon, juice of
Preparation
    Rinse the elderberry flowers- they must be just in bloom.
    Cut the lemon into thin slices and mix with the flowers and the remaining ingredients in a reasonably large container.
    Stir.
    Cover the container and leave in a warm place.
    The juice can be drunk after 24 hours.
    If necessary add lemon and honey to taste.
    After 2-3 days the drink will begin to effervesce.
    Then sieve, put into screwtop bottles and store in a dark room.
    The juice will turn into sparkling wine in around 4 weeks.
