Local Raw Honey

Elderberry syrup is a blend of elderberries, herbs & spices that create an anti-inflammatory & anti-viral concoction for your immune system to thrive on. Also a good source of vitamins A & C, as well as iron, potassium & antioxidants, elderberries are shown to help avoid colds, flu & allergies & speed up recovery in those who already have these illnesses.

All ingredients in our unique blend of elderberry syrup are always 100% organic! In addition to Elderberries, each batch also contains Rosehips, Echinacea, Fresh Ginger, Lemon Peel, Orange Peel, Cinnamon, Cloves & Local Raw Unfiltered Honey, all of which have their own beneficial healing properties within themselves. (We will soon be adding ARONIA BERRIES to this blend).

For health maintenance & sickness prevention throughout the year, we recommend children over the age of 1 year take 1tsp daily, & adults 1Tbsp daily. When actively fighting an illness or allergies, take every 3 hours (or 3-5x daily).

(Unsweetened batches available upon request for babies 6 months to a year)

There are no preservatives, thickeners, stabilizers, artificial sweeteners or additives of any kind in our elderberry syrup, so it must be refrigerated. We have found that shaking your jar often helps preserve it longer. Our elderberry syrup may last for varying lengths of time but we have discovered 60-90 days is usually minimum. It also freezes well (especially in cubes so you can defrost in small servings as needed) in which it will last for over 1 year.

It simply has not been researched conclusively to give a straight answer to this question, so we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before taking any new supplement or medication. (Message from the owner: “Personally, I made the choice to continue the use of elderberry syrup on a daily basis throughout both of my pregnancies and nursing my babies with no adverse affects. Still, I advise you to make your own decision with the help of your professional healthcare provider”).

Generally, elderberry syrup is safe for children over 1 year of age, but is not recommended for children under 1 year as it contains honey. However, we do offer custom batches upon request of either unsweetened, maple syrup sweetened or any other ingredient you may need left out for any reason. Send us a message regarding custom orders.

As we’ve mentioned above, we do not add any preservatives, thickeners, stabilizers, artificial sweeteners or additives of any kind. We sweeten our syrup with local raw unfiltered honey rather than the alternative glucose/sugars. Our syrup is also nearly half the cost of store bought syrup, and without all the additives, you get even more bang for your buck. We also create our syrup in small batches that are carefully tended to from start to finish, so you get the best quality every single time!
