Sirup iz dišečega španskega bezga / Aromatic Lilac Syrup

⎨SI⎬ Španski bezeg v vsej svoji opojni lepoti

Izdelava sirupa iz španskega bezga je prav en poseben proces. Cvetovi španskega bezga so taki majhni in simpatični. Barva je prelepa. Vonj je nepozaben. Prava poezija. In aromaterapija obenem. Komaj čakam, da sirup uprabim v sladicah ter poletnih limonadah in gin&tonik mešanicah.
