Welcome to Fantasy Foods!

This blog is a constantly updating recipe book focused on a wide range of original fantasy-themed recipes. From cottagecore fantasy drinks to high fantasy deserts and everything in between, there should be something for everyone.

These are real-world recipes, which means you can make them yourselves! Please tag me if you do make any of these <3

Perfect for if you want themed food for your next DND campaign, party, or simply to feel a bit more magical.

Each recipe is tagged with the 'type' ('drink', 'starter', 'main' or 'dessert') and 'theme' ('cottagecore', 'high fantasy', 'rustic' or 'literature'). At the top of each recipe there is also the difficulty, time needed and any dietary requirements. Due to the author of this blog being vegetarian, most recipes should at the very least have a vegetarian alternative suggested, however it's always best to check.

Requests are open, however please keep them non-specific, as new recipes are hard to form. Bear in mind that there are several recipes always in progress, so something you'd like may be just around the corner!

Have fun, and happy cooking!

Recipe

You will need:

Elderflower cordial (mine is homemade, which you can also make by following this or another tutorial, or alternatively buying it)

Mint leaves

Lemon juice

Water

Pour some cordial into your glass. The amount will very due to taste or size of glass, but roughly one sixth is a good rule of thumb, as it’s concentrated.

2. Fill the rest of the glass with water to dilute the cordial. If making a large batch (e.g a jug) you may want to lightly stir it at this stage, however it should mix evenly naturally. If you have bought ready-mixed elderflower juice, skip this stage and instead fill your glass.

3. Squeeze a few drops of lemon into your glass, again to taste. Don't go overboard!

4. Add a few (washed) mint leaves. If it's a particularly hot day, you could also add ice cubes.

5. Enjoy!
