Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 125ml dry white wine
  • 55g caster sugar
  • 1 lemon, zest finely grated and juice
  • 300ml double cream

Method: How to make lemon syllabub

1. Mix the wine, sugar, lemon zest and juice in a large bowl and leave to stand for a minimum of 2 hours or chill overnight.

2. Stir the cream into the wine mixture then whip using an electric whisk until the mixture holds in soft peaks – do this slowly at first until mixture thickens or it will spatter out of the bowl. Spoon into tall wine glasses. Serve with lavender langue de chat biscuits if liked.
