European elderflower, also known as elderflower, is a delicate, fragrant flower that grows on the elder tree (Sambucus nigra). It has been used for centuries in traditional medicine and culinary practices.

The elder tree is native to Europe, but it also grows in other parts of the world, including North America and Asia.

 Elderflower has been used traditionally to support respiratory health and ease symptoms of colds, flu, and allergies. It is believed to have immune-boosting properties.

 It may be used topically to soothe skin irritations and promote healthy skin.

Elderflowers are used to make various culinary delights, such as:

    • Elderflower Cordial: A concentrated syrup made from elderflowers, often diluted with water to make a refreshing drink.
    • Elderflower Tea: Dried elderflowers can be steeped in hot water to make a soothing tea.
    • Elderflower Fritters: Flower heads can be dipped in batter and fried to make a tasty treat.
    • Elderflower Wine: In some regions, elderflowers are used to make wine.

 

To prepare as tea:

Pour 8 oz. boiling water over 1 TBS of herb. 

Cover and Steep 3-5 minutes.

Strain, serve & enjoy!
