Why Elderberry Syrup?
A question we often receive at The Little BeeKeeper is: “Why are extra ingredients needed in elderberry syrup if elderberries are so beneficial?”
The simple reason is that elderberries on their own are very bitter, which is why you don’t see them on the shelves alongside popular fruits like strawberries or blueberries. Historically, elderberries have always been sweetened and paired with other ingredients to improve their flavor and make them more enjoyable.
Elderberries are rich in antioxidants and well-known for their immune-boosting properties. However, due to their naturally bitter taste, they’ve traditionally been used in recipes such as jams, wines, and immune-supporting syrups where sweeteners help balance the flavor. This is where elderberry syrup stands out. Elderberries are cooked down and combined with a sweetener—most commonly sugar or honey—to create a delicious and nutritious syrup that can be easily enjoyed by people of all ages.
At The Little BeeKeeper, we’ve refined our elderberry syrup recipe since 2014, ensuring not just taste but quality and effectiveness. Our syrup blends elderberries with carefully selected spices and fruits to enhance its flavor, then sweetens it naturally with our signature honey. The result is a perfectly balanced syrup that not only provides the immune-supporting benefits of elderberries but also a taste customers love.
