#elderberry #elderberrysyrup
I had an elderberry syrup making party last year! Ended up costing 5 bucks per person and it was a ton of fun! Thanks for making this video!
I love that you are spreading information about herbal or “food” medicine!! You can also make gummies from the syrup by adding some gelatin! Great for kids! ❤️🌱🌿🍃
I’d love a tour of your fridge/pantry! Wondering what a homesteader “medicine cabinet” looks like
You can also cook this in an Instant pot. Add all the ingredients Jess recommends, and then set your instant pot to 9 minutes. After it beeps, you can do a quick release and then follow her directions from there. I've done that several times and it comes out great. Enjoy!!
I've made this for years. Grandma's recipe. She didn't use ginger, but I like to. The rose hips come from the wild roses that grow in our woods.
Hope I don't sound creepy. But I would love to meet you! I have watched you all year long and I just love the way you live your life. I can't wait to have some land one day where I can "farm" the way u do! Thanks for all the videos and congrats on all the subscribers! U deserve it!
I was so excited to see how you make it! 😍 I've been making it about 5 years now, here is the recipe I've assembled we have things in common.
4c. water
1c. dried elderberries
2T. grated fresh ginger
2T. rose hips
2T. hibiscus flower
1T. dried orange peel
1T. dried lemon peel
1T. ground cinnamon
1T. echinacea
2t. whole cloves
1T. xylitol
1c. raw honey
Every ingredient has its purpose, makes a quart😊
Absolutely adore you guys, blessings!
thanks!
Can you tell me the benefits of elder berry syrup
Where would I get dried elder berry
@christian milton you can get it online, i used to order mine from mountain rose herb company, there are several places that sell it though. I dont buy it anymore because I've planted elderberry bushes. Elderberry syrup boosts the immune system and helps fight illness, it can be argued that taking it daily helps ward off illness. We typically take it daily from October to March when there seems to be lots of stuff going around, and only take it when fighting something the rest of the year.
Oil of oregano is a great addition for its antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal properties. Add drops to the syrup and a tasty way to take it is 3 tbsb added to hot water and a wedge of lemon for a wonderful warming tea
The essential oil???
@@Mimi33948 No, the oil you can consume. If you look at it on Amazon, it comes in a dropper and it's amazing stuff! It heals the mouth and helps fight off cavities too. It's also good for the blood and digestion and it fights off bad breath and body odor. Even if I sweat, I don't get stinky! You can make it at home. I mix 2 -3 drops in some almond milk because I have a sensitive stomach and it works like a charm.
Hi codeN, if we don't have oragno oil can we add dried oragno in it when we boil or steep the elderberries? Would dried oragno gives the same benefits as oragno oil?
thank you. you mentioned kombucha...would you do a video on that, please?
I would also like that.
I'd be interested too😊
Yes!
She did a video about it long ago but recommend a different users videos who had been doing it longer i believe.
We add straight syrup to unsweetened iced tea. We let everyone add what they want to their own glass, and I am sure its more than a spoonful. No one thinks of it as medicine, but as a treat. It's that good.
"I'll use a few tablespoons of ginger..." *Jess adds an entire cup of ginger* LOL
@@McSnicker55 but she put a whole lot more than that in lol thats the joke :p
I love the way you "measure" the ingredients, the same way I do! - Jeri
Yes! Finally a great recipe that I can go back and find!! 👍👍👍
I love how you encourage us to use our inner wisdom with dosage, etc. So rarely heard, and so important. Thanks sista!
This was great! I know I could find a recipe but I love the way you explain the purpose behind each item you put into the syrup.
I really need to make some! Thank you for sharing the process. Seems pretty easy and straightforward
Congrats on 204K subs. Thank you for this. Love and Hugs from Oklahoma
Today is my 3rd time making this recipe. It's definitely a keeper for cold and flu season. Thank you Jess.
Shut up!! The notification for this video popped up while i was on amazon trying to price out elderberries!! 😍😍
Sometimes when big brother is listening, it works to our benefit 😊
So glad you're feeling better......missed you!! Stay well.
Thank you for this video Jess! I just planted an Elderberry Bush this fall. I know I need to get another one so hopefully in the spring I can find one. I’m glad to see you’re feeling better... if this was filmed after the weekend. If not, I hope you ARE feeling better ☺️
Hi to your family and have a great day!
Wow. A jar of honey that size is nearly $30 here. It was $9, 5 years ago and I've watched it rise 😭 makes me want to keep bees!
I want to try the rosehips!
I made my first batch of elderberry syrup last fall. Love it! It makes a great pancake syrup and is yummy in a latte!
I’m so excited!!! I have been looking for a good recipe for a while now... and I trust you 😂😂!!!! Watching now and you’re the best!! Thanks!!!!!
Love love love elderberry! We love that it has such a great taste with so many health benefits.
Thank you Jess! This week we had a snow day. I was at home with our three kiddos. I made my first elderberry syrup using your recipe. Looking forward to its great benefits. I learn so much from your vlogs. You're awesome!
I'm so excited to try this out!! Thank you for sharing!!!
YESSS!! I've been looking for a recipe and I haven't trusted anything until now! Thank you!! ❤️
Thank you for showing us this Jess. I was wondering how to make my own. It is so exensive at the store and there are 5 of us. God Bless You and Your Family.
Happy to see you are feeling better.
Yay I love to learn by watching people make things!
i never had coughs or colds as a kid but we foraged big time and we had elderflower syrup then elderberry syrup later in the year and rose hip syrup for viatmin c. we would take them straight off a spoon if we were not feeling our best drink them as cordials diluted with water or lemonade and if they got too thick in the pan they were syrup for icecream sundaes! I have not seen them since leaving Scotland but I never thought of looking for the dried ones here in Canada. I will need to look into it for sure.Thanks for the tutorial and bringing back happy memories.
I can say hands down Elderberry is the very best flu / cold prevention and remedy. A few years ago we were hit by the flu. I was the only one that consistently took it. Needless to say I cared for 5 family members with flu and was Blessed not to get it. I use the same recipe as Jess,its just good stuff !!
Thank you so much for showing this with me.
You're just the best! I learn so much from you.
This is right on time! We need more and I wanted to make our own this time!!!
THANK YOU JESS FOR THE RECIPE AND INFO. GOD BLESS
Thank you for sharing the recipe with us.
Thanks Jess! Enjoy your videos and hope you are feeling better.
Hey Jess!! This looks so awesome! We just bought our first house on a half acre and I am so excited to finally have the space to grow lots of produce and fruit. Thank you so much for sharing! I always wondered about elderberries, definitely growing these on the property!
This lady deserves all the good things in the world. She is so grateful
Thank you Jess! I made this last night/today & shared your video with those I will be gifting it to- Merry Christmas Mrs.Sunshine! You are so loved!🥰🥰
Thank You Jess! I caught my first cold of the season, so am so going to make this for the future... 🤧
Loved your video. Never thought about buying the berries in bulk & just storing them, however, NOW I will!! Thanks for sharing!
Really good instructions. Thanks for sharing!
Really enjoy these videos, as someone who is new to 'food' medicine I hope you do more of these in the future...
My elderberries just arrived, cant wait to make this. Thanks for sharing Jess 🥰
thank you thank you! you are the first person i have watched that said to keep it in the fridge, no wonder mine went bad!! now i will know if i ever make it again.
Thanks so much! I have been looking at elderberry syrup. Now I will try it.
Great information! I plan to make mine tomorrow and glad I found your helpful video
Thanku. God bless you too
I’m finally growing elderberries!!! I’ve not picked my yet…I just stand and stare in awe! I’m finally able to attempt this recipe! (I planted live plants last yr.). Thanks, Jess for sharing all of your knowledge. U are a blessing!
We Gotta take good care of our temples! ✝️💚☀️
Amen🙌❣
This would make a great gift idea for Christmas, thank you.
Love adding lemon balm, yarrow, and marshmallow root. Camu Camu is also high in vitamin C.
Haven't done rosehips before! Will be ordering and adding to my next batch!
Thanks!
Thanks so much Jess! I just put a pound in my Amazon cart. A friend of mine makes Elderberry tincture with our local berries. It is way to bitter to take by itself so this syrup looks really good a simple.
Thank you! I just got over strep. I had to go on antibiotic but I think that was partly because I waited too long. I tried elderberry first, but I didn't start soon enough. I am definitely making your recipe!
Thank you for sharing!!
You have such a wealth of knowledge. I alway learn something watching your videos. Thanks so much. Dawn.
Thank you for this recipe I have elder berries on our property and I'm looking at propagating more plants this spring. I will be getting cuttings from these plants and I have a few friends who are wanting to have these in their yard as well. I'm very excited about expanding these plants, I understand their benefits but haven't really been serious about using them. I watched a video by OG with Doug and Stacy they were getting new starts planted around their chicken coop. So thank you again for sharing your life with us, God bless dear and your family💞
I have never had elderberry syrup, but my mom makes elderberry blackberry jelly and it is the bomb.
Thank you, Jess... Just shared this on Facebook! Great recipe and great advise- 👏🥰 Hope that you are feeling much better so far this week! Blessings to you all - 💓🙏🥰
Awesome! Thanks for sharing! I hope you are feeling better 💛🙏
I hope you are feeling better! I use Black Elderberry, especially in the wintertime! It is awesome and definitely works. I also use echinacea and stay pretty well when all the crud goes around this time of year.
I love how there are so many variations to elderberry syrup! I will add in a few of your ingredients to mine! I have already made this years first batch with Amy Fewell's recipie.
My variation I add nutmeg & vanilla extract. My kids love this recipe the best
I add it to my coffee in the morning! Yummy
Howling Dog Ranch: Amanda Eder oh I’ve never thought of that!
Thanks Jess! I'm sick as a dog and made this last night to help with my sickness but to also prevent my sweetheart from catching the ugliness. This is delicious! I added lemon juice and apple cider vinegar. Really yummy!
I’ve been wanting to do this!😁
wonderful and healthy. so much better when you can make your own. My mother-in-law from Germany taught me this many years ago. We would take weekend leisure drives around town and look for them along the roadsides. She has an eagle eye to spot them. Lucky enough to have my own bushes now.
I'm making some this week!💖
Thank U so much love!❤
I first made it last winter and was excited how easy it was...and how much money it saved me!!
I've made this for past couple of years. I have convinced several naysayers of the benefits!
I cannot wait to make this thank you so much
Thank you so much! I’m going to make it now.
Thank you!!! I've been wanting to make some syrup, I got 2 elderberry plants in spring and got a handful of berries off the plants this year. Great video Jess!!
I have 2 bushes and they grew into dinosaurs this year, despite hard pruning😁 last year I used a lot of blossoms, this year all berries (the lower ones for me, the upper ones for the birds). Last year I dehydrated them, this year I need to look how to make the actual syrup!
Thank you for this recipe. Loved this video!!!
Thanks for sharing!
Ty jess gonna try this!
It looks pretty easy
Your videos are always so helpful!
I made my first batch ever Jess! Ty for getting me inspired to use the elder berries in our local food forest! Yum I put my own intuitive twists on it.
Hope your feeling better!!!! 🙏❤🙏❤❤❤
Thank you very much
I'm gonna have to try the syrup. I've made elderberry tincture, and I love it. But it'd definitely be nice to have the syrup for putting in my tea.
I use elderberry faithfully, and we like to add it to our hot tea/hot tottie on days we feel sick or feverish. It is a great sweetener for just regular hot tea also.
This is great thankyou so much!!
Thanks I was looking for a good recipe for this 💖
Just bought some dried elderberries. Hope you still get credit. Thanks for the recipe
Gathered wild elderberry, so happy to find your video. I'm making syrup today.
I was just wondering about this. Thanks for sharing!!
I love using elderberries!
Searching for a syrup recipe and I come across yours. Im already a subscriber so very happy I found this video. Im using fresh berries from a secret patch that took me 5 years to find. Also using honey from my Uncles farm.
Good timing! I’ve been wanting to make elderberry syrup for a while. I woke up this morning with a sore throat.
Dede Tudor I forgot about oregano! Thanks!
I’ve been curious about this, thanks Jess!
love this. I make elderberry syrup too.I learned how through my women homestead group. I make two kinds of fire cider. The original type and one where I add hibicus and rose hips. My youngest son love the second
Thanks! Just made - heres hoping!!
Here to learn!! Can’t wait ❤️😍
Im deffenetly going to make this. I usually buy the elderberry gummies off Amazon, but it's not cost effective. Thank you for sharing! 😊❤
Beyond perfect timing on this video. Doing this on Saturday and didn't have a recipe...Now I do..YAY..Btw Elderberries absolutely work, y'all❤
I just finished the elderberry syrup. Oh my goodness... it’s the best I’ve ever had! This recipe is IT! 🙌🏻
Diane what kind of cinnamon sticks did you use and where do you purchase your sticks? I want to give this a try
thanks :-)
mawpatti i had 2 cinnamon sticks left in a jar that I’ve had for years. You can get them anywhere in the spice section. I also put a couple shakes of Ceylon cinnamon since I only had 2 sticks. I hope you do make it! It’s a great recipe!
