Black Elderberry "Toddy"
Black Elderberry glycerite has a sweet, tart, and fruity taste. One delicious way to take it in the winter (or any time of year!) is in warm water. Adding a bit of local honey plays up Black Elderberry’s sweet side, while a squeeze of Lemon offers a hint of sour tang. Since this drink uses warm (not boiling) water, it only takes a couple minutes to prepare.
Ingredients
Serves 1
½ tsp local organic honey, or to taste
4 oz warm (not boiling or steaming) filtered water
0.7 ml Herb Pharm Black Elderberry, Alcohol-Free liquid herbal extract†
1 fresh Lemon wedge
Instructions
- Place the honey in the bottom of a mug.
- Carefully pour in the warm water, then stir until the honey has dissolved.
- Add the Black Elderberry, Alcohol-Free extract, then stir again.
- Squeeze the Lemon wedge into the mug, and serve immediately.
- Sip and enjoy!
Tips:
- To make this beverage vegan, substitute Coconut nectar or Maple syrup.
- If you prefer a less sweet drink, omit the honey.
- Use a fresh Orange or Lime wedge in place of the Lemon.
†One squeeze of the dropper equals 0.7 ml; provides approximately 1 serving of Herb Pharm liquid herbal extract.
