I saved my solids and placed in ice cube trays...after frozen, pop into freezer bags. Use for teas, there is still alot of flavor left in the berries!
I hope it's ok to post this. For those who are able to and don't have objections, a pantry shelf stable adult version can be made in larger batches by infusing vodka or rum with the berries for 6 - 8 weeks. Very simply, fill a quart jar 1/3 full with berries and cover with preferred spirit. Toss in a few dried juniper berries, or a spice bag, etc. Cap and put in a dark place. Invert daily or a few times a week. Strain, pressing berries to extract juice, return to jar or other lidded vessel, sweeten if desired, and store in a dark place. Adult dosage is 1 tbls daily during flu season as a preventive. Temporarily increase to two tbls if you suspect you're exposed. I can vouch for the effectiveness. To your good health!
Thank you for sharing! Can’t wait to make my own!
It makes fantastic wine and is shelf-stable for as long as it takes your neighbors to find out
Thank you for sharing! You do such a good job explaining!! 💞💞💞🤗
The elderberry plants are really beautiful too.
I gather the super dark clusters when the berries are beginning to fall off. Spread them out on a large piece of cardboard for an hour and most of the bugs will bail out. Then I bag them up and chuck them in my deep freezer until I have about 5 gallons of clusters. Now take that large piece of cardboard and fold it 90° lengthwise to make a sort of trough. Elevate one end and put the low end in the top of a 5-gallon five gallon bucket. Now, slowly rub the frozen clusters between your hands and the individual berries will immedeatly break loose and roll down into the bucket, leaving the stems and debris behind, stuck to the cardboard. Also it is easier to extract the juice When the berries thaw as they are split open and softer. I actually learned this trick with an old patio door screen
