WHAT MAKES YOUR ELDERBERRY PRODUCTS DIFFERENT FROM THE KIND I CAN BUY AT THE GROCERY STORE?
Two things distinguish us from store-bought elderberry syrup: ingredients. As opposed to glucose syrup and other additives, we use raw, local honey in our syrup. Also, we don't add preservatives or sugars to our syrup, making our syrup the purest on the market.
HOW DO I STORE MY ELDERBERRY SYRUP AND HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
Our elderberry syrup will last approximately 135+ days in the refrigerator. You can also freeze our elderberry syrup in ice cube trays for up to 6-8 months and thaw out smaller amounts as necessary.
