Elderberry Syrup

A seasonal favorite, made the old-fashioned way. We simmer elderberries (Sambucus nigra) with cinnamon and cloves into a rich tea, then stir in honey to turn it into syrup. It's fruity, warmly spiced and sweetened with honey, and it's a cozy part of the fall and winter routine for many families.

Ingredients: Water, elderberries, honey, cinnamon, cloves.

How to enjoy it
