Immunity-Boosting Elderberry Syrup
Ingredients
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 cup fresh elderberries
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 3 whole cloves
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
  • 1 cup honey
Instructions
1
Collect and prepare all necessary components for the recipe.
2
Heat a saucepan over an average temperature setting, combining water, elderberries, sliced ginger, a cinnamon stick, and whole cloves.
3
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, then gradually decrease the heat to a lower setting and allow it to gently simmer for 30 minutes.
4
Use a masher or a similar tool to crush the berries with a mixture of mashed potatoes, releasing their juices and pulp.
5
Strain the resulting liquid through a fine mesh or sieve, retaining the juice and discarding any solids, including the cinnamon stick and cloves. Allow the mixture to cool for 30 minutes.
6
Mix in a sufficient amount of honey until it is fully incorporated and the desired consistency is achieved.
