Elderberries (50 g | 1.7 oz)

Elder Berries are sweet and floral, with a tart fruitiness. They are frequently used to flavour syrups and cordials. They can also be used as a seasoning for stews and grilled meats, similar to the way juniper berries might be used.

Elderberries are used in winemaking to enhance the structure, flavour, and fruitiness of select wines. They add natural sugars during fermentation and improve the volume of the palate. For making elderberry wine, use 4 ounces per gallon. Use 1-2 ounces per 5-6 gallons to enhance red wines. Elderberries also help with tannin and make the wine fuller-bodied. * Product of Europe
