I've made my own syrup using a few different recipes and this little package of goodies is a million timea better. My family has grown in the past 3 years and finding time to do everything from scratch is a struggle. This made my life so much easier and I will definitely purchase again. Thank you so much. We feel even luckier bc we scored honey from some folks that live a few acers away from us so we got REALLY local honey. 🙌🙌🍯❤❤❤❤
I really enjoyed this. The instructions were clear. I love the addition of the goji berries, rose hips, and astralagus, to make this extra immune boosting. I really liked the taste, even with less honey, but my kids did need more honey because the cinnamon and clove kind of gave it that spiciness. The only con I can think of is to make the print on the packaging a little bit bigger for those who cannot see very well. The print of the instructions was a little small of a font. I didn't have problems reading it but I could see how someone may have difficulty. For someone who wants to try to make their own elderberry syrup with extra immune boosting benefits, all the while having all the ingredients conveniently packaged, should definitely try this. Plus, this also supports a small business and mother and I really would love to support that as much as possible.
I love elderberry syrup. It's my go-to choice when everyone around me is getting sick. I won't go into all of the benefits, as you can google those. This product's ingredients seem to be high quality and there were easy to follow instructions on the bag. While making the syrup my home smelled like the holidays... but real scents of the holidays, not those fake chemically ones. I love that I get to choose how much honey I add and how concentrated I want it. It made about 15oz of the syrup (I used less honey) and I simply stored it in an old swing-top beer bottle. If you are a fan of holistic health, this is a great option for you. You know exactly what's going into it, unlike the store bought syrups. It's simple ingredients and it has a WAY better flavor than the ones from those other stores.
I made a syrup 2 years ago with only elderberry and echinacea, but I really like that this package includes all the other great stuff for boosting your immune system, like goji berries, cinnamon, clove, etc. All really good stuff for fighting against everyone else's cold. If I'm feeling weak and like I'm about to get sick I take 1 tbsp, but for daily use during cold/flu season you can take 1 tsp, which this should last a few months if you do that.
Started reducing sick symptoms the first day. I followed the suggestion on the label and let mixture soak for a day which created a potent taste. It worked great but even after adding a cup of honey my kids did not like the taste. We will use this again!
As someone who doesn't usually stray far from western medicine, I was skeptical about trying this. But my daughter is vulnerable to respiratory illnesses so this season I wanted to give her all the help she can get against colds and flu. I made this in maybe an hour; it was simple and easy to follow directions. I was surprised at the taste. I think my daughter, who is a toddler, will like it too.

Description
ORGANIC Elderberry PLUS+ Syrup Kit - Make your own Elder berry syrup at home - Just add your own local honey. But this mix also includes the benefits of echinacea, rose hips, astragalus, and Goji Berry! Making your own syrup is a fantastic way to save money. It is fragrant, sweet, and your kids will love it. This kit contains enough to make 18-20oz of syrup. Don't be fooled by other kits promising to make a large amount of syrup, only to give you a recipe that dilutes the berries by asking you to add more water. Our recipe makes a very high potency, concentrated syrup. To make the syrup just stew the contents of the bag in filtered water. Allow to cool and add honey. Full directions come with each bag. Dosage: Adults take 1 Tbsp daily for immune maintenance, 3 Tbsp when sick. Children ages 1-5 years take 1 tsp daily for immune maintenance, 3 tsp when sick. DO NOT give honey to babies under 1 year. For infants ages 6 months - 1 year you can substitute cane syrup or maple syrup instead of honey. This product is not meant to diagnose or treat any illnesses. DO NOT give honey to babies under 1 year.
I wish I could give 4.5 stars & not 4. The package was delivered a day earlier than I expected which was great. Instructions are on the package but the print is a little tiny. Directions were mostly clear, although it wasn't specific as too if I needed to bring water to a boil 1st then reduce to simmer. Or just simmer. There was an option to connect seller, but I couldn't wait for the seller to respond as I had already opened the package & begun before I realized I wasn't clear on the instructions. So I looked up other recipes online. As for the taste, it's not my favorite, but tolerable. My 5 year hates it! The rest of the family doesn't really complain. Just makes weird faces ☺
Love it so far. Smells wonderful. Wish the print for the instructions were larger.I will likely purchase this again.
I love this product! So much easier than getting all the ingredients myself. I just needed to get the raw honey. Super easy to make also. And it did make the 18oz. I simmered the mixture for about 45 minutes. At first it didn’t seem like much but then I realized the liquid is supposed to just make 1 and 1/4 cup (10oz). With the 1 cup of raw honey it makes 18oz. You need to really squish the berries to get all the liquid out.
I give this Elderberry Syrup blend 5 stars. It was packaged well, easy to make and the taste is great. This kit yielded about 18 oz. I simmered it for a long time and kept my eye on it so it wouldn't cook down too much. I also stirred it while simmering so it wouldn't stick to the bottom. Mixed it with 1 cup of raw local honey. I put some in 2oz glass jars for some friends to try. I have about 12 oz left. The instruction label should be a bit larger for easier viewing but other than that, this is a fantastic product. I am glad it is a blend and not just the berries. I will purchase this again.
This is extremely easy to make, tastes great and it works. My entire family takes this, including my three young kids who are under 7 yrs old. I put 2/3 of the amount of honey that it calls for because I find it to be way too sweet if I use the suggested amount. I simmer it for 1 hr, remove from stove, smash the berries (with meat smasher) to remove all juice, and then strain (with cheesecloth), and bottle.
