St-Germain French Artisanal Elderflower Liqueur, 20% ABV, 50cl / 500ml, Made with Fresh Handpicked Elderflowers, No Artificial Flavours

When I bought St-Germain French Artisanal Elderflower Liqueur, I wasn’t just looking for a drink—I was looking for an experience. You know, that touch of elegance that transforms your kitchen into a Parisian café (even if there’s a pile of dishes behind you). I imagined myself swirling a delicate glass, talking about “notes of elderflower” like I knew what that meant. Spoiler: I don’t.But here’s the thing—this liqueur lives up to the hype. It’s floral, smooth, and so dangerously drinkable that even my non-cocktail-drinking friends started asking for “just one more.”The Encounter:The bottle itself feels like an invitation to sophistication. Its sleek, Art Deco design looks like something you’d find in a fancy French bistro, not tucked between the ketchup and hot sauce on my counter. The liqueur inside is a golden elixir that smells like a meadow in bloom, and the taste? A perfect balance of floral sweetness and citrusy brightness.The first sip was like drinking springtime. I started with the classic St-Germain Spritz (liqueur, prosecco, soda water) and immediately felt like I should be wearing linen and discussing existentialism under a pergola. Then I got bold and added it to gin, vodka, even a margarita—it’s like the Swiss Army knife of cocktails.Review:Pros:Elegant Flavor: A perfect blend of floral sweetness and subtle citrusy tang, it elevates any cocktail.Versatile: Pairs beautifully with prosecco, gin, vodka, tequila, or even just sparkling water for a light, refreshing drink.Stunning Bottle Design: It’s a statement piece for your bar cart, even if your idea of a bar cart is a shelf in your pantry.Smooth and Balanced: No harsh aftertaste—just a delicate, lingering floral finish that feels indulgent but never overwhelming.Perfect for Impressing Guests: One mention of “handpicked elderflowers” and your friends will think you’re a mixology genius.Cons:Pricey but Worth It: It’s an indulgence, but the quality justifies the cost.Too Drinkable: You’ll run out faster than you think because everyone suddenly “needs to try” your cocktails.Floral Overload Risk: If you’re not a fan of floral flavors, it might feel a bit much—but for most, it’s a game-changer.Unexpected Adventures:One evening, I decided to go full-on French and paired St-Germain with sparkling water, lemon, and a baguette. My partner walked in, looked at the spread, and said, “Since when do we live in a Chanel ad?” Another time, I splashed it into a fruit salad for “research purposes,” and it transformed the dish into a dessert that could’ve been served at a five-star bistro.The real highlight? Hosting a cocktail night where every drink featured St-Germain. By the end of the evening, one friend was Googling flights to Paris, and another declared, “This is what being fancy feels like!”Final Thoughts:St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur is more than just a drink—it’s a vibe. Whether you’re sprucing up your cocktails, impressing dinner guests, or just treating yourself to something special, this liqueur delivers elegance in every sip.Would I recommend it? Absolutely. 5 stars—for taste, versatility, and its uncanny ability to make you feel like you’re living your best French fantasy. Bonus tip: Always keep a bottle on hand—you never know when you’ll need to escape to Paris (even if it’s just through your glass). Santé! 🍸✨

Top quality elderflower liqueur for making ‘Hugo’ cocktails. Much classier than an aperol spritz and a lot more delicious. Mix a half measure of st germain over ice with soda and Prosecco, top with fresh mint and lime. A perfect base for a hot weather cocktail.

We love this liquor for making a Hugo spritz. Not always easy to find and a good price when purchased

Amazing gin - perfect for elderflower spritz

Best elderflower liqueur out there, and presented in a gorgeous looking bottle.

Takes gin and tonic to the next level

Just the best! I use this as a top up on Prosecco of Champagne or even to make a tasty addition to lemonade. The flavour is perfect, as described by seller and I do really recommend this - also the bottle is delightful not just a selling point like so many drinks these days

This needs to be refrigerated as it needs to be consumed very cold in my opinion. It can be added to water, alcohol, or drunk straight either cold or over ice. It is very sweet, but cold it’s delicious. Difficult to find in high street stores or supermarkets. Expensive I guess, but worth it. Also great addition to a glass of champagne or white wine if it’s a little dry!
