Elderberry Syrup

 

This recipe is a lifesaver in the winter to boost your immune system.

Elderberries are full of antioxidants and vitamin C. Both honey or maple syrup have anti bacterial properties making this syrup delicious and ohh so good for you!

It's really easy to make and my kids love it too (well not always but its good for them! )

The only challenge is finding the elderberries. Check local farmer's markets and health food stores.

For 500ml
1lb elderberries
1 litre of water1.2 cup - 1 cup honey or maple syrup.

Boil the elderberries in the water until it becomes a thick syrup about 45 minutes.

Let cool then add the honey or maple syrup.

Drink 2 ounces every morning to stave off cold and flues.
Drink 2 ounces 3 times a day if you have a cold or flu.
