Hope He feels much better very soon.
Looks like a winner. Thx.
Do you take care of bees as well? My grandfather did so I am always interrested! Feel better Papa Bear :))
I make mine just like this but add brandy (1/2 the amount of finished syrup) when it cools down. This will preserve it long term and won't have to be refrigerated. Good for shtf.
first: sorry for my english. I'm a swiss woman 😉 we had made elderberry syrup, too. but mostly "White" (from the flowers) and, of course, we have a few own elderberry-trees 😉 but sometimes the jam doesn't go over/fold (?) and then it has give black syrup 😉
Excellent recipe! Can this be preserved with the canning process, for long shelf storage, or would you recommend drying the berries and making a little at a time when needed.
Elderberry syrup is amazing we make pretty much the same thing. It is a god send. Hope you feel better soon.
I just made some for my family and can't wait to see it work. My husbands been sick for 6 weeks and just can't kick this virus and my youngest son has been sick for a week already. I took a dose myself and at a spoonful of the berries for extra measure. Thank you for the recipe!!
I made the mistake of putting my honey in at the beginning with all the other elements. Is it still okay to use?
Just a word of warning to those who are allergic to ragweed like I am: do not consume things that have chamomile or echinacea in them. They will cause a reaction.
Thanks.
I made my first batch of elderberry syrup and it is so good I did add two tablespoons of echinacea tea from organic echinacea tea bags and only 3/4 cups of honey. Even then it was really sweet!! But the kids love it!!
This is the same recipe from Mountain Rose Herbs.
AWESOME THANKS!!!! I didn't know they could be bought dried!!!! Hon you just helped a sick neighbor. Elderberries are almost magic & now no waiting!!!! Ain't no city talking head here is there.
Love the accent! Lol
I bet this would be awesome in chilled soda water….
Can you freeze this stiff? I was thinking cubes that are about 5ml.. wonder how long it would last frozen
What does it work on? I believe this is what we use for cough syrup
I am planting elderberry bushes this weekend!! They arrived a couple days ago, and look perfectly healthy to plant. I am so excited!!!! I have my area picked and almost ready to plant, and hopefully in a couple years we will be harvesting yummy berries for wine and jelly and and and…so exciting!!
Thank you for showung us gow to so this. Buying it at the farmers market is $22 a bottle.
Can you use fresh orange juice in the place of the water?
Patara, I accidentally bought the wildcrafted version should i be concerned? Same company tho.
I got extremely sick after eating a lot of yummy raw elderberries, but my friend did not. Best I could figure it was a teeny bit of a stem or a not completely ripe berry. Close to an emergency trip to the hospital. I took very large amounts of B complex and ate a few cheese tortillas. Repeated antidote the next day. "Do your research". (Love the elderberry gummies.)
How can i get some in oklahoma
I have been making & taking elderberry tincture for at at least five years. I have never had the flu or a flu shot & I haven't had a cold for six years. I used to take it November through March, but am taking it year round for now. Staying healthy!
Another great post from you.
