Bottle 1
Opened by my mother after 3 days. She said it was flat and overly sweet. However she found the flavour and aroma of Elderflower to be really interesting and very pleasant.
Bottle 2
Opened the first bottle of Elderflower Sparkler about 5 days after bottling. I had read some alarmist story about screw-top bottles bursting all over someone's hot press so I decided to try one out. It had a light level of bubbles but again it had a very sweet taste. Too much for me.
Bottle 3
Opened last night 1 week after bottling. Beautiful amount of bubbles - fizzed beautifully on the tongue. A little less sweet but still cloying in the after-taste.
I will leave the last bottle for a few weeks. I am going to make another batch up and use less sugar.
