  2. 2.

    Squeeze the juice of all lemons and top up to 1 liter with apple juice. Pit the dates, roughly chop them, and add to the juice. Then puree, add the elderflowers, and bring to a boil in a pot. Stir in agar-agar and simmer for another 2 minutes, bubbling.

    Strain through a sieve into prepared (hot-washed or boiled) jars, seal immediately, and turn upside down for about 10 minutes. Let cool.
