Norfolk Strawberry Scones with Clotted Cream, served with Elderflower Kombucha
Nothing says summer quite like warm homemade scones, sweet Norfolk strawberries and a glass of chilled Elderflower Kombucha. The delicate floral notes and natural sparkle of our seasonal brew pair perfectly with this classic British treat.
Makes 8 Scones
You'll Need
- 225g self-raising flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 50g cold butter, cubed
- 25g caster sugar
- 120ml whole milk
- A splash of milk for brushing
To serve:
- Norfolk strawberries, sliced
- Clotted cream
- Chilled Oichi Elderflower Kombucha
Method
- Heat your oven to 220°C (200°C fan).
- Add the flour and baking powder to a large bowl. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Stir in the sugar, then gradually add the milk until a soft dough forms.
- Turn onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat out to around 3cm thick. Avoid overworking the dough.
- Cut out rounds using a cutter or glass and place onto a lined baking tray.
- Brush the tops with a little milk and bake for 10–12 minutes until risen and golden.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.
To Serve
Split the scones in half and generously spread with clotted cream before topping with juicy Norfolk strawberries.
Pour a glass of chilled Oichi Elderflower Kombucha alongside. Its light floral flavour and natural fizz make it a wonderful alcohol-free alternative to Prosecco, bringing a little extra sparkle to summer afternoons.
Perfect for garden gatherings, lazy weekends, or simply celebrating strawberry and elderflower season while it lasts.
