Cook until the rhubarb starts to break down and collapse, about 5-10 mins.

(You will make enough cordial for two drinks.)
Next, pour the gin into an ice-filled coupe glass, then stir in 50ml of the cordial.
Top up with sparkling wine.
Twist the strip of rhubarb around a finger to curl, if using, then drop into the drink to garnish.
After all, it wouldn’t be Spring without edible flowers.
You’ll Need:
8 edible flowers (such as pansies, rose petals and borage)
50ml elderflower cordial
How To Make:
Place the herbs and flowers into the holes of an ice cube tray, fill with water and freeze for 2-3 hrs or until frozen solid.
Pour the elderflower cordial, elderflower liqueur, gin and a large handful of ice cubes into a large jug.
Stir until the outside of the jug feels cold then strain into 4 tall glasses or champagne flutes.
Top with the soda and add a few more ice cubes and the floral ones too. Serve immediately.
