Fennel Elderflower Spritz

This Fennel Elderflower Spritz is deceptively simple -- the fennel adds drama to what is essentially just a nice tall glass of elderflower liqueur and seltzer. Add a slice of citrus (I prefer lime but lemon, particularly Meyer lemon, is just as dreamy), and you're good to go.
