There was a time when my husband and i were both unemployed, we had two kids and were so worried they would get ill and we would need to take them to hospital, we had elderberry bushes in our yard i made elderberry juice with the flowers and elderberry syrup with the berries. My kids, husband and i never got sick while drinking it. It is truely an amazing plant and since then wherever we live, i grow elderberry bushes. Thanks for this recipe.

Elder used to be called the "Country mans medicine cabinet" because it has so many useful properties. The flowers make a delicious cordial and the berries make a nice syrup (high in vitamin C). When I was a boy, my mother gave us kids elder cordial/syrup all year long. Sadly, its not as readily available in stores now.

@Dragonfly20233 10 ай бұрын

people bring it to a full boil bc studies show that if you don't boil for 20-30 min then your elberberries will contain the cyanide compound and it can cause dangerous toxicity. Preventing fly isn't helpful if you are giving your family cyanide poisoning.

Elderberries grow wild here in MO. I bought some plants last year, they are beautiful plants, lovely flowers and pretty berries. In January you cut them back to 4,to 6 inches. Take the sticks that you pruned and poke them into the ground, or container. As long as you have 1 to 2 buds below the ground level and 2 to 2 above, they sprout and grow so easy! The flower heads smell so great.

Chaga mushrooms are an immune modulator. Cordyceps are an immune booster. You should get an immersion blender. I wouldn't waste any of the berry material. About a teaspoon of dried thyme might be a great addition to the elderberry syrup. It actually increases white cell counts. It makes a decent tea on its own, too.

Elderberries grow wild in the hedgerow here (England) - birds eat the fruit and deposit the seeds everywhere...so, they really are very common. My mum always insisted that we had elderberry syrup in the house each winter when I was a child (~50 years ago) but you can't buy it now. Lots of the old remedies have disappeared off the shelves and you just can't buy them anymore. As others have said: the elder is a really useful bush (it's called the country mans medecine cabinet for a reason). You can use the elferflower (around May/June) and the berry later in the year. It makes a very nice wine too!

It sealed properly, but with the changes I made is my syrup still safe to consume? THanks!

I'm watching this as I make our third batch of elderberry syrup for this season. I started making it with the elderberries from St Fiacres Farm I got in the bulk deal from your "Herbal Medicine Cabinet: Colds" class. My family loves it! My toddler had a runny nose recently and the run of that little cold was far less severe and she got over it quicker than we're used to. The older ones in the family have been taking a daily dose of the elderberry with the fire water and are also feeling the benefits. I've been able to up my doses when I feel a tickle and ward off any virus so I can keep caring for my family. Last year we were paying for mass produced elderberry that did not taste very good. It wasn't that effective because I couldn't get anyone to take it! Thank you so much for these lessons you've been sharing. God bless you and your family!

Hi. I’m in the UK. Elderberries are abundant here. They feature in mainstream OTC medicines too as ‘Sambucol’ - a treatment for colds and flu.

I make elderberry syrup kombucha. That is fantastic and much easier way to take it.

Good video. When I can it, I leave the honey out and add it when I open the jar.

I thought a syrup was much much thicker. This looks very thin as if it was just water. Do you not cook it down in order to save the medicinal properties?

Hi Carolyn, I love your channel & thank you so much for all that you’ve shown me already! Can we mash the berries into the syrup instead of discarding? Thank you!!

I don't recommend as the seeds and skins are poisonous
