Elder is blooming again, charming people with its strong smell. Few friends asked me about how we make elderberry syrup at home, so I thought of opensourcing it;) Remember that every written part is important (I tried to bold the most important words). Ingredients: 30 elderberry blossoms 5L of water 3kg of sugar big spoon of Citronka about six 1L glass bottles with non-plastic closure Getting blossoms Blossoms should be chipped with scissors right after all small blossoms group together. As recipe says, 30 medium sized blossoms are recommended, but extra 4 or 5 will do no harm. Blossoms should not be put in plastic bag while collected, since they are very sensitive. Blossoms should be carefully picked, since we are not washing them before making syrup, just make sure there are no bugs around.
