That is an elder tree, right? I noticed they are in full bloom here when I was out on my bike from the smell. Min father usually makes elder-blossom-lemonade. It is great as is, or with gin.

The taste is delicious and they are easy to pic.

Takes about 5 minutes to pick enough for 2 quart bottles Cordial.
