Lime & Elderflower Possets
A beautiful and fresh summer dessert.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 284 ml carton extra thick double cream
- 2 oz sugar
- juice and zest of one lime
- 1 tbs elderflower cordial
Instructions
- Gather your ingredients. Zest and juice the lime.
- Put the cream in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Keep a close eye on it to ensure that it doesn't boil over. Be warned that this can happen very fast.
- As the cream is heating, add the lime zest to the cream.
- Once the cream has come to the boil, add the lime juice, sugar and cordial. Simmer for about a minute, stirring well to dissolve the sugar.
- Pour the lime and elderflower posset into serving dishes (I find these quantities fill 4 ramekins or 6 espresso cups). Allow to cool and then chill in the fridge for about an hour. I served them with biscuits and strawberries marinated in elderflower cordial.
