It is a share, not a count, so it does not grow just because we follow more cafes. It only grows when more of the cafes we follow take it up.
The month in progress shows here once it is complete, so a part month never reads as a drop. A month with too few cafes posting is left out.

When did elderflower first show up in Sydney cafes?
The earliest Sydney cafe post or customer review about elderflower that The Froth has is from 19 Jan 2025. We only see what we collect, so that is when we first saw it, not when it started: it may have been sold earlier, here or elsewhere.
How does The Froth count this?
A cafe counts for elderflower from the first public post or customer review we found about it, the cafe's own post or a customer's, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with an Instagram post or a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with cafe posts or reviews (14 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Sydney with all of a trend's names added up. Captions stay private; we only link to public posts. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
