    We have had elderberry bushes growing wild on our property for years but I'm just learning how to utilize them. Thank you!

      Awesome - they are pretty quick growing once established.
      What was the green plant? Think you had a typo

    I've just done this following your method. I can't wait to try some once it's finished steeping. My first effort making anything from what I've foraged thanks to your videos! Thank you. Keep up the good work.

    Carl, I made Elderflower Cordial but it didnt set in the freezer what went wrong?

    • @SelfSufficientHub
      @SelfSufficientHub  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      What do you mean by set?
      It often won’t actually freeze hard as the sugar content is quite high, but this isn’t anything to worry about!
      The freezer temperature is still low enough to prevent bacteria breeding.
      Hope this helps, please let me know if that doesn’t answer your question. 👍

      Hi Carl thank you for reply, I thought that may be the case. I boiled it up again and added some more water. I didnt want to waste any so I made up some ice cubes. They are now setting nicely xx i will add them to a glass and add soda water etc to them so it tastes of elderflower x
