My land burned to Ash last year...but this year,the elderberry trees have already grown to over 10 ft.The berries are more brilliant than they have ever been.Every medicine plant has come back 10 fold,and there are even some new plants that wearnt there before.
I love that I learn little things from you, how you said “look at the color, how could that not be good for you”. And it brings the knowledge all together!
I've made 3 batches so far, there's so much fruit about this year I can't stop! We get through the syrup quick like you guys. Tastes so good. I used cinnamon sticks, cloves, ginger and lemons in mine this year. Love your channel, you make me feel safe and cosy xx
I will be definitely making this next year,when my rose hip syrup runs out,thank you for sharing your knowledge, as im a visual learner rather than reading a recipe.
I have lived here for 19 years and now I know what the tree is in my garden. I hope you keep hard copies of all your videos stored off line as the world will need them if facebook is wiped one day
I have been saving elderberries in freezer for a while. The tree keeps flowering all summer, i harvested little by little. When i get enough i will make this. Amazing, thanks. 😊
You both inspired me last year to go Elderberry foraging and I made this beautifull tonic that I drank each day for 3 months feeling boosted and amazing this is Amazing and infused with fresh root ginger for double protection I can see the berries now changing colour to purple black where I am and will be making this goodness any day now With sourcing local honey farms to purchase local Bees honey the best kind . Love this new vid 🙏 Blessings Janie
I love how comprehensive your instructions are, it's so easy to follow, you don't miss covering any of the sensible questions that people might have to make it realistically. Thank you so much from nz.
I just spent the best part of an hour removing every tiny bit of stem, I wonder if it was really necessary. Oh well better safe than sorry. I've been told to freeze the berries next time as this should make them easier to deal with. Great vid as allways guys 🌞
I’ve just been picking out the frozen berries but still bits of stem come off with them,I want to make jam with the whole berries as I’ve made it years ago and it’s nice and crunchy but I can’t remember how I got the tiny stem bits out😂
I am making it right now, i have been saving elderberries little by little in freezer. I measured it is 3 cups, yeah, i got enough. Added 5 cups of water to make it thicker. 😊
Just ripe here. Picked yesterday. A demijohn on the go and syrup currently boiling on hob. Also collected blackberries yesterday which seem really early. (Posted 11th Aug 2024)
Yes ! I was literally out with ave the other day looking to see if the berries were out yet.... Will defo be out foraging this weekend and will make some ! X
Taking the berries off with a fork is so satisfying. I made elderberry capers with the green berries earlier this year, not sure about their health properties but a wonderful culinary delight. Off to forage now ❤
Here in the USA, our berries are not posionous to eat raw. We grew up eating them all the time right off the bush. But also, our berries grow on tall plants that are more like raspberries but very tall.
Hi there.apologies if you have already answered this question. Do I just gently heat the honey to melt so as not to destroy the goodness. Also. Does the cooking process not kill the goodness. On a side note...I made some before and didn't cook it enough a few years ago and it fermented in the bottled... was explosive!. So transferred to plastic but had to use quickly ! Thanks so much for your inspiration. Irish fan ☘🌟💫
Lovely video thank you. I'd love to make some, I have my elderberries already (in the freezer), however I'm going on low carb diet shortly so I'm more interested in making a tincture. Do you have a video for that please?
Lovely vid. I make mine with Brandy too, been out this week foraging for berries, the Blackberries aren't ripe yet but when they are i will also mix them in with them for some jams. I always thank these lovely trees when I pick the Berries too. Last year a found a new one growing in the garden, it shot up this last year as well and picked some lovely berries from her a couple of days ago.
Only just found your channel and absolutely loving it ♥and all of you. I want to but one of your books but as I'm a little short on money which would you suggest first? I'm very interested in things like this elderberry syrup and the cordials, fruit leather. I'm also Vegan but I gather from the comments, it's best to use maple syrup or sugar as the honey substitute but I was just wondering if any of the honey's you make would work or agave? TIA
Your videos go silent…. I think I’d love to watch and hear you guys all at the same time!! I’ll go check out your other platforms. Just hope u know the sound is messed up.
I have an elderberry tree but I thought it was a poisonous type. Then you said the berries are poisonous till cooked. So my question is, can you use any elderberry berries as long as you cook it? I really want to make this!
It would nearly be cheaper for me to buy the syrup as the price of that much honey would probably cost the guts of £20. Or if you guys know of anywhere cheaper
But it says on google that the fruit off the elderberry is poisonous but the elderberry flowers is ok to eat raw or cook. But the berries has to be cooked. Your vids are Very informative thank you. Did you know that blackberries first came into existence in grave yards as the were used to keep out the grave robbers and also the blackberries when turned wild grew into brambles.

I'm a qualified herbalist and I thoroughly enjoy these! Love you guys!
The Romans used the branches, with the pith hollowed out, as pipes joined with clay.
You remind me of the legend David Bellamy with your enthusiasm 💪😁
Totally agree
That's a great compliment!
Oh great spot yeah there is something there. Love Bellamy, total legend as you say.
It is David Bellamy in his latest reincarnation 😊
He pretty much came straight back in...
...and also,the fork trick! amazingly helpful!
i seen on another channel...you can freeze on branch then shake in bag berries fall right off🤗
I LOVE ELDERBERRIES...
Elderflowers...everything Elderberry... 🤩😍
They are amazing!

What a lovely thing to say💞
What is the proportion of all the ingredients you make the syrup with

I am making it right now, i have been saving elderberries little by little in freezer. I measured it is 3 cups, yeah, i got enough. Added 5 cups of water to make it thicker. 😊
Loving this idea, my elder is late this year, the berries are still rock hard, I keep giving them a squeeze!
Mmmmm, you've inspired me to make some.😊💜
😁
Great video❤
I always put them in the freezer and then it’s so much easier to pull the berries off😊
Just ripe here. Picked yesterday. A demijohn on the go and syrup currently boiling on hob. Also collected blackberries yesterday which seem really early. (Posted 11th Aug 2024)
Best recipe I found thank you 😍
Do you reckon I could do this in a slow cooker or would it lose out on something necessary in the process by not reaching a boiling point?
Yes, he looks healthy.
Fun. Thanks for sharing ❤
Yes ! I was literally out with ave the other day looking to see if the berries were out yet.... Will defo be out foraging this weekend and will make some ! X

I'm not the only one who saves the fever tree bottles then haha
nice job
Hiya , great video and very helpful....would it be ok if i used ground ginger , thank you
Yes 🙂
Thank you so much...take care
There are some elderberry near me, but hemlock is growing round it. Us it still safe to use?
STEMS!!!!!!
Which pen for marking thank you
Just did 14quarts of elderberry juice..
Can you freeze elderberry?
Yes you can
Your videos go silent…. I think I’d love to watch and hear you guys all at the same time!! I’ll go check out your other platforms. Just hope u know the sound is messed up.
How do you remove the tiny white magots that i sometimes find coming out of the berries? Thankyou.
If you make Elderberry wine do you still have to cook them to make wine ? My Late Uncle made the wine when i was a kid.
Can this be frozen? Thanks 🤩
I have an elderberry tree but I thought it was a poisonous type. Then you said the berries are poisonous till cooked. So my question is, can you use any elderberry berries as long as you cook it? I really want to make this!
Is it just as beneficial if the berries are frozen for a couple months?
Have you got a writen recipe please?
We've all our recipes written in our book 🙂
If you freeze the berries they come of the stems easier
do you think molasses would work instead of honey for a vegan?
Sorry we've not heard of molasses
You can use normal sugar or maple syrup instead 😁
Can you make fruit strips with the syrup?
Not sure its not very thick of you made it thicker maybe
@@homeiswhereourheartis thank you ….I’m going to crack on making the syrup today,, following your brilliant recipe
I want whatever he had. Plzzzz. Lol
Love your video but the sound is too low when you video,. We can hardly hear you
Have you made sloe syrup?
We've not made it before 😁
It would nearly be cheaper for me to buy the syrup as the price of that much honey would probably cost the guts of £20. Or if you guys know of anywhere cheaper
But it says on google that the fruit off the elderberry is poisonous but the elderberry flowers is ok to eat raw or cook. But the berries has to be cooked.
Your vids are Very informative thank you.
Did you know that blackberries first came into existence in grave yards as the were used to keep out the grave robbers and also the blackberries when turned wild grew into brambles.
The fruit itself is not poisonous it is the seed and stems same thing with chokecherries the seed is poisonous
@@johnslife6669 So, the best thing is not to press it or mash it, just cook it straight, correct?
@@nebojsa1976 you can press them to get all the juice just don't mash and crush seeds chokecherries same thing
@@johnslife6669😂
That blackberry story sounds like nonsense 😂😂
You should remove the stems and green berries.
Gang ... Don't cook the honey' .... Ayurveda advises it loses goodness if we heat it. So as She says, stir in when warm ....
very low volume
This is the definition of “how many dishes can I dirty with making one recipe”. Great video otherwise.
