Notes
*I suggest that my low histamine readers use lemon balm leaves for their citrus flavor, rather than lime juice which is higher histamine.
- If you have a sweet tooth you may like to use a little more elderflower cordial.
- The lemon balm is optional, but adds a nice citrus note.
- I suggest to use a plain unflavored sparkling water to make the mocktail.
- Check the ingredients list of your elderflower cordial for citrus (and other ingredients) if they do not work for you. Brands vary a great deal in their added ingredients for cordial.
- Nutritional information is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
- elderflower cordial scores 0, but check the label for any additional ingredients.
- sparkling water isn't rated.
