Belvoir Fruit Farms raises a cordial glass to Her Majesty!
Belvoir Fruit Farms is encouraging the nation to raise a very cordial glass to Her Majesty the Queen on her 90th birthday with a limited edition of their original Elderflower Cordial, resplendent with a union jack and a birthday message on the label.
The Leicestershire based, family-run business has been making its award winning Elderflower Cordial for over 30 years. Hand made at Belvoir using only natural ingredients with no artificial preservatives, additives or sweeteners, Belvoir invites the local community to help pick the fresh elderflowers that they need to make each year’s vintage from their own plantations and the hedgerows growing wild in the country.
If punters would prefer to raise a more alcoholic glass to honour the Queen, then Belvoir has come up with a punch recipe to share with friends and family – ‘Give Peach a Chance’ – which is on the back label of the limited edition bottles.
