I've made my Cordial as per Mary Berry's recipe using citric acid. After a week I noticed I have what I would describe as little clouds of film floating in the tops and middle of the bottles. Anyone any ideas what this is, cause and can this be remedied ?
it may be just particulates clumping together...
Unless you filter it you will get pollen and other bits of detritus floating around and it does tend to clump together a bit. Or it could be starting to ferment a bit and natural yeasts might be active but it would start to go a bit fizzy. I would't worry about it too much. I freeze mine in ice cube trays to make it last longer and one or two in a glass of water makes a decent drink.
Hi Fitzie,
I strain mine through a piece of muslin a couple of times which clears it nicely!
I've also reduced some of mine to concentrate the flavour & use in cooking

as Debs said I get a large piece of cooking muslin free from our local butcher and strain it 2 or 3 times till pure.....
