    Canadian here. I found dandelion & burdock soda ONCE in my local grocery store and, once it sold out, they never carried it again - a shame, because it instantly became my favourite fizzy drink. Thank you for sharing this recipe; I'm definitely going to have to try it!

    If you allow the D&B to cool to just a Luke warm then all the amazing benefits of the Honey will be preserved and you’ll then have yourself an even more healthy beneficial drink. Hot temperatures denature the amino acids etc if the honey. Honey is an incredible product!
    Thank you so much for this video. I’ll be hopping about searching the undergrowth. Good point to indicate the best places to find Burdock too. Can you tell us. Thanks

    Great vid, I thoroughly enjoyed it, especially when he was talking about the plants, never heard of the term 'biennial' plant. Great no fancy stuff trying to make it more enjoyable or humorous, just smiles all round and a genuine avid interest. Oh, liked the referencing about the saint who woke up one early morning to cure a hangover and he asked the lord to provide a drink, and the lord did provide and Latin names and annotation brilliant! I wish I could do vids like that👍

    Herbalist here. Just remember that Burdock can have hypoglycaemia actions, so you must be careful if you're on diabetic medications.
    And with Dandelion root, do not use it in cases of obstructed gallbladder or bile ducts.
    If you don't have these, then this is an awesome one to make. Looks delish

      What? But burdock is full of starch

    • @Moll_Nutkin
      @Moll_Nutkin Рік тому +2

      Not an expert, but I have a family member with problematic Type 1 diabetes. The issue might be that the starch causes a sugar spike, causing too much insulin to be produced/injected, potentially leading later to a sugar crash and if that's not corrected in time, then a hypo?
      It may just need the individual to adjust their monitoring and insulin input accordingly - they will have experience in what their body needs and doesn't when it comes to carbs! Hope this helps.

    What a lovely tutor! And it looks like a lovely libation. I have a sodastream, so adding carbonation would be easy! (I've been carbonation kombucha recently, tasty option!) I'd likely go with less honey, and perhaps freeze some ... also think of mead ....
    I recently saw refrence to those burdock boxes, and a gal who divided a potato grow box (2×2') into quarters, putting 2 seeds in each section! I'm thinking of a 5 gallon bucket and dumping out for harvest!

    When you dig up the burdock root use a post hole spade, push it into the ground to make a small square and leverage it until you hear a pop, the plant should then come out easily without having to dig it out and making such a mess around it. Not a forager am a horse owner where this plant is an absolute menace, seeds can last years without germinating and the burrs are a total pain in the behind giving the horses a new hairdo 🙈 I’ve dug up acres of them and this is bar far the best method I’ve found without wrecking the fields

    • @adreabrooks11
      @adreabrooks11 6 місяців тому

      Thanks for this tidbit of knowledge! I live in an apartment, and have to rely on others' properties for my foraging. I always hesitate to ask about burdock, due to the amount of digging involved to get the root. Maybe this will give me a little edge in the game. :)

    i could believe that burdock actually is a gift from On High; the entire thing is edible and tastes amazing (well, most of the time anyway lol) and it has that famous leafy green nutritional pedigree *and* it could grow in a crack in the sidewalk...aaaand it might have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Perfection I'd say. 💜 The only thing i want to warn you about is the honey. If you add it while the mixture is still hot it will turn into a kinda harmful glue like substance so please be aware next time and let stuff cool first if you can. Have a lovely week , love you all. ☮ ✌.

    Sorry but no plant has Vit B12. Vit B12 can only be sourced from meat. However, vegetarians can take fortified yeast but B12 does not occur naturally in yeast. That being said...burdock has, folate which is the natural form of vitamin B9. It's called folic acid in its synthetic form. Folate is essential in making new cells, DNA, and other genetic material. I may make this but I'll sweeten it with molasses.

    Well time to get experimenting if it's just a case of boiling roots and yeeting things in, well if Stevia works... I can grow literally everything and just boil up some D&B, as for carbonation, get CO2 canisters and a pressure rated bottle then load up a nozzle, seal the bottle with the nozzle on top then blast it to no end with CO2, and wait till equilibrium lest you have a fizzy sticky fountain.
