A warming blend of elderberries, rosehips and traditional spices, ready for you to simmer, strain and sweeten at home.

Our Make Your Own Elderberry Syrup Kit contains a carefully prepared dry botanical blend inspired by traditional homemade elderberry syrup recipes. Simply add water, gently simmer, strain and add your preferred sweetener to create a rich, fruity syrup at home.

Perfect for the colder months, each pouch contains one 50g batch of dried botanicals and warming spices, with a beautifully illustrated instruction card included.

Inside the blend:
Dried elderberries, rosehips, orange peel, ginger root, cinnamon and cloves.

How to make your elderberry syrup:
Empty the contents of the pouch into a saucepan and add 500ml fresh water. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer. Simmer uncovered for approximately 20–25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly before straining thoroughly through a fine sieve or muslin cloth. Press the botanicals to extract the liquid.

While the liquid is still warm, stir in your preferred sweetener to taste. Maple syrup is a lovely vegan option. Transfer to a clean, sterilised bottle or jar and refrigerate.

Because this is a handmade preparation, the final quantity of syrup will vary depending on how much the liquid reduces during simmering and how much sweetener you add.

You will receive: one 50g Elderberry Syrup Kit plus full preparation instructions.

Why you’ll love it: a simple DIY preparation, naturally vegan ingredients, no need to measure individual herbs and spices, and a lovely addition to your autumn and winter kitchen cupboard.

Hand-prepared and packed with care by Roaming Raven in Dorset, UK.
