I was given this recipe from a friend several years ago. It is similar to the one online with Mountain Rose Herbs. In a stove top pot mix: 3 cups of spring water 1/2 cup dry elderberries 4 inch piece of fresh ginger sliced 8 - 10 inches of cinnamon stick Bring to a simmer and simmer 1 hour. Press juice from berries. Strain and let cool completely, and add: Juice of one lemon 2/3 cup of honey Note: To make this last longer you can add 1 cup brandy (after you stir in honey and lemon) Store in a cool dark place. Adults: take 1 Tbsp. daily, or up to 3-4 a day when feeling ill.
