    Elderflower tips. I make this each year. Last time I had no lemons, so I used oranges, delicious. You need to make it in the next two weeks, once the blossom starts to turn then the cordial it makes is not very nice. You can tell if the blossom is turning as it smells like cat wee. To strain it use muslin or even an old tea towel that way you can squeeze more out.( very sticky). Add a slice of cucumber to the drink. Keep bottles refrigerated. Enjoy 😊😊😊❤

    Loved seeing the horses and the estate the roses and the soon to be 4 bedroom remodel.I loved the faux floral arrangement it reminded me of a still life painting but what I loved mostly about the arrangement was that you used your grandmother's roses they were beautiful.

    You just served up an enjoyable home time. You had the cutest dress on and was so glad to see you visit the horses. I am sure you miss those great days and especially the WINS.
    The floral turned out beautiful. The cordial looked so refreshing especially it would be tasty on a hot summer day. Exciting plans coming forward on a building remodel/add on. I love those vlogs. Mummy will be decorating it I am sure. Oh that rose arbor 😮. Enjoy a special evening with Mark! 😀❤️

    Dear Leanora, I love the content today and also the last one with your mother. You are such good friends and your mother is such a good sport when you keep things real! How lovely to see your horses and the trusting relationship you have built with them.
    My daughters have had horses and in so many ways they taught them about trust, love, hard work and discipline to name a few. Such beautiful and knowing animals.
    Blessings to you and your family.

    Darling Leonora, it's such a pleasure to watch you with your doggies and horses. There is so much joy and kindness in this moments!
    Can you imagine i've never tasted elderflower cordial in my live!😁 But i have an excuse i am Russian! I drink Champagne, wine, Cognac and very occasionally vodka. This days i don't drink alcohol every day, hence i'll try the elderflower mocktail! Elderflowers are plentiful here when in season, which will be a bit later.
    Lot's of Love.

    Love seeing your beautiful girls out in the field enjoying their retirement. Oh, elderflowers are so beautiful just as they are on the bush. Since the flower is not indigenous to the midwest America, I order Elderflower Cordial from Europe at $14.00 per bottle. You are fortunate to have it in your garden.

    Leonora Thought of you & Alex Coll during the past week on hearing the news of the event rider Georgie Campbell passing away following an accident at the Bicton Horse Trials. I feel we do not always appreciate how dangerous any sport involving a horse is & that those riders, at whatever level they participate, have to be so skilled, strong & fearless. Your Epsom outfit was one of your best - the hat - wow! Not a fan of The Mailonline, but you & Mark were most defiantly a standout couple.

    I make elderflower cordial every year and love it and put lime or lemon in it. It does not last long in flower so have approx a month of it. Keep it in the fridge and it is so lovely and special. I just add boiling water and leave it to seep no need to boil or simmer.

You bring a smile to my face. You are beautiful in white. The silk floral arrangements was created with perfection. Was that large spray of white flowers, Dogwood? I had two trees in the garden of my home--miss them. They are beautiful trees. Whenever I watch you, I think, would it not be lovely if my most precious 10 year old granddaughter grow up to be like you. She is blond and tall and already is showing some exceptional qualities.

    I genuinely feel such a connection with you Leonora. So much of the things you enjoy doing I love doing too. I also enjoy fresh flower arranging and was only saying to myself today I can't keep affording to buy fresh flowers. I don't know why I never thought of silk flowers. Your silk flower display was so stunning that I am now going onto the ochre website to purchase these . Like you if theres isn't any special occasion then silk can do.
    I don't think I have ever left such a long comment....but I have honestly enjoyed every minute of this vlog.

    Another cheerful vlog that shows off your wonderful creativity. The silk floral arrangement is gorgeous and so summery. My Mom used to make a Grand Marnier or Triple Sec knock-off that was as easy as your Elderflower cordial - a bottle of vodka, sugar syrup and the rind of oranges all left to steep for a couple of weeks before straining.

      I understand that you mean it as a sincere compliment but behind the scenes, which is well documented, Martha was condescending, unappreciative and manipulative.
      Darling, Leonora is NONE of those things and YET she has ALL of Martha’s talent and so much more!! Sorry, I literally can’t put those two names in the same sentence.
      Leonora is a standout with multiple talents! However, that she is also authentically WONDERFUL (fill in the blank with additional adjectives) puts her in a class of her own.

Or even small magnolia type flowers - have to look at the Oka site to find out hey?

      Yes, it is the amazing American Dogwood. It is supposed to tell the Easter story. In April I drove from Kentucky to Charleston SC. We took the back roads through the Appalachian Mountain. Driving down the North Carolina hills were full of pink and white Dogwood. Coming home the Rhododendron were in full display. What a travel gift. Today’s blog was delightful. Recently I found Fever-tree makes Eilderflower Tonic. Which have have been added to my Rhubarb Gin and Tonic with Line. All in all a divine drink. I think I will fix one now… Cheers my dear🍸

    I LOVE seeing the horses! We moved to our cottage a year ago from Kentucky. The owners divided the land and left a horse to the people on the other half of the land that don’t live here (there’s no house, they come maybe 1x every 2 months). Romeo, a painted quarter horse, was SO SKINNY, you could see every rib and hip bones, not well cared for, lonely with cracked hooves and all. Bless him. He also came from Kentucky! Since we moved in he has been SO SPOILED with sweet feed, alfalfa hay, carrots and apples and all the other delights. We’ve also tortured him with fly spray, which he doesn’t care for but is much happier when it’s all said and done, and a winter blanket 😂 we never could actually get it on him. He has no barn or shelter so we worry about him. We are so happy we get to spend time with our sweet Romeo and I think he’s pretty happy we came along too. 💛 the vet said he’s about 15 💛 and that he should not gain anymore weight😂 we had to cool it on the sweet feed. Your girls are gorgeous! I think Romeo would agree 😊

    What a divine video! Thank you, Dear Leonora, for such a precious vlog! One tip when you've making the cordial - always use a dry, clean spoon each time when tasting it to keep out any bacteria from getting into the syrup. Otherwise, your recipe is perfect and what a glorious path you're on and thank you for sharing it all with us! So much love to you, 💕

    It isn’t a Sunday without you Darling!! And of course you and your vlog never disappoint!! I must say , I also follow you on Instagram and I’M BUSTING AT THE SEEMS with excitement for your race day vlog!! But always love an at-home vlog also ! That’s really part of the beauty of your channel/community. It’s everything! It’s life! One day is visit the horses and make a yummy elderflower syrup and gorgeous silk flowers for the season, and then fabulous events coming up! Those will be great too! Loving life with Leonora!! And life happens one moment at a time! LOVE our moments with you darling!!! Oh…. A thought… loved the “mini tour” of the estate to see the lovely roses, perhaps an estate tour? Consult security though, we need to keep you, family and property safe. But it looks STUNNING! So that might be fun in future! First EPSOM, HENLEY, ROYAL ASCOT…the whole shebang! Sorry to warble on Darling! Have a wonderful day and thank you for another amazing vlog!❤

    Leonora thank you again for such a blissful journey into your world. Every iota of this blog was enchanting. One suggestion is please consider getting your Perrier in glass bottles because plastic transfers chemicals into your beverages. Also, glass renders a pure taste and would enhance the flavor of your Elderflower Creation, Libations by Leonora! Sending Love across the Atlantic…

    The white flower bush is Dogwood I think....Hello from Nashville TN. Love the Vlogs!

    Your elderflower and lemon cordial looks and sounds delicious! Even better it's home grown and so personalized for gifting. Can't wait to see how you will be creating and expanding on your new enterprise! Cheers!

    I believe your mystery white faux flower is a dogwood. I used to live in Georgia in the US & we had several dogwood trees . I enjoyed seeing more of the estate. It’s breathtaking. Thank you for sharing it with us. 🩷

    Rhubarb and elderflower would be wow 👏🏻. Having lived in the vale of Belvoir for years we have grown up on their cordials. Well done for having a go! 🩷

    Dear Leonora!
    I'm nearly 50 and a proud mom of 4 very loved kids and I must admit it is very refreshing to see a succesfull young lady as yourself to take such a great care of your house, your diet, yourself and even making her own eldelflower cordial. It makes me hopefully thinking that not all roads this days are driving in a wrong way. So beatiful! I just love watching your content, even I am a bit older😉. Love from Slovenia!❤ Barbara

    You did a lovely job on your floral arrangement! I love the drama of a substantial arrangement! I’ve never tried elderflower anything but you make me want to try some. I agree completely when making the drink look beautiful to add to the pleasure of drinking it and your guests will always feel more special when sensing your generosity and the added aesthetics! Your roses are gorgeous... almost as spectacular as your wonderful horses! I love that you have a favorite kissing spot on your girls! 😘🥰😘 I had one on my Maltipoo, too. 😘🥰💗 Our beloved animals always need plenty of affection and sweet kisses! 💗💗💗

    You are always so generous, interesting and incredibly entertaining, You communicate with your dog in the most cutest way. Your garden is a a stunning haven. Your horses are beautiful. Your speech matter is so eloquent and beautiful. I have also learned what is an Elderflower. I am yet to try what does the Elderflower cordial taste like. You have a natural talent for floral arrangement...Beautifully done. Your dress is gorgeous. You truly have the upmost appreciation of what beauty is all about.
