Our recipe is as follows:
Homemade Elderberry Syrup
Ingredients:
4 cup black elderberries (1 lb dried)
12 cups of water
4-6 cinnamon sticks cinnamon powder
1/2 - 1 Tb whole cloves
48 oz local organic honey
How to Make Elderberry Syrup:
Pour water into medium saucepan and add elderberries, cinnamon and cloves (do not add honey yet!)
Bring to a boil and then cover and reduce to a simmer for about an hour until the liquid has reduced by almost half. At that point, remove from heat and let cool enough to be handled. Pour through a strainer into a large mixing bowl. Press the berries to extract as much liquid as possible from them.
Discard the elderberries, cloves, and cinnamon sticks by composting them!
Add honey to the liquid. When honey is well mixed into the elderberry mixture, proceed to can it in 8 or 16 oz canning jars via water bath method.
Store open containers in the fridge (for up to 90 days) and take daily for its immune boosting properties. (Some sources recommend taking only during the week and not on the weekends to boost immunity)
Standard dose is 1/2 tsp to 1 tsp for kids and 1/2 Tbsp to 1 Tbsp for adults. If the flu or a cold does strike, take the normal dose every 2-3 hours instead of once a day until symptoms disappear.
