Meadowsweet Cordial - A Wild Kitchen Manifesto

Meadowsweet Cordial

 

🌼 Meadowsweet

 

(Filipendula ulmaria)

 

Fragrant, honeyed, and once used to flavour mead by ancient Celts—this wildflower is practically royalty. The creamy-white blooms of Meadowsweet have subtle notes of almond, vanilla, and spice. Magical in syrups, puddings, and drinks.
