  1. Soak gelatine leaves in cold water. Dissolve the gelatine in a measuring jug in the hot water from the kettle. Add the elderflower cordial and top up with sparkling white wine to make 450ml of liquid in total. Drop a few raspberries into six tall glasses and fill to about a third with the elderflower syrup. Leave to set completely, then add a few more raspberries and some more elderflower syrup. Repeat again until the glasses are nearly full to the top.
