Making Nettle Cordial

  • 5 Wellgreen Lane Stirling, FK8 2BS United Kingdom (map)

​Learn to make a deliciously refreshing Nettle cordial, with Angelique from Invest in Plants. Once cooked, the nettles lose their sting! (phew)

Have your nettles and ingredients ready and make it with us in this interactive zoom session. Or, if you'd prefer, log in and watch and make it later at a time that suits you.

This drink is best enjoyed sitting outside on a sunny day - mix your cordial with water or other drinks of your choice!
