Mixing Up Elixir

Over the years I have purchased elderberry syrup from organic health stores.  This year, however, is my first year to make my own elixir.   While doing more research, I have discovered that the "elixir" works better, as it is not heated like the syrup is.  Thankfully, the mail was delivered yesterday, and my elderberries arrived.

 

I do not have access to fresh elderberries here, so I purchased organic dried elderberries.  I located a recipe online, and used raw honey.

I'll let you know how this recipe works.  You can take it as a preventative, as well as at the onset of illness.  There are many more recipes online for such elixirs, than in books.
