Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 cup dried elderberries (I use this one)
  • 2-inch piece fresh ginger, sliced
  • 1-inch piece fresh turmeric, sliced
  • 3 cups filtered water
  • ½ cup raw honey
How To Make
  1. In a medium size pot, add elderberries, ginger, turmeric and water.
  2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 60 minutes.
  3. Press the berries using a potato masher to release more of the berries healing juices.
  4. Strain into a bowl gently pressing all the liquid out. It is best to do this in a few smaller batches. You may also run this through a nut milk bag to get the most of the liquid.
  5. Add honey to the bowl and mix well.
  6. Transfer to a clean sterile glass jar and refrigerate up to 2 weeks.
  7. To keep longer you may also freeze some. I like to do this in ice cube trays to have single frozen portions ready to go.
  8. I like to combine a squeeze of fresh lemon with 2 tablespoons of the syrup and 6 ounces of hot water for a warm healing elixir.
