Spiced Elderberry Syrup: An old remedy, deepened

Description: This is where Bloomfield Botanicals began. Certified organic elderberries, simmered low and slow with six warming spices — juniper, cardamom, clove, cinnamon, star anise and rosehip — then finished with raw local honey, fresh ginger and lemon. Spices sourced from Harvest, Bath's long-standing health food shop.

Take a spoonful straight, stir into warm water, or add to a hot drink on a cold morning. One of the most-loved things I make, and the one people tend to come back for.

Ingredients: Certified organic elderberries, juniper berries, cloves, cardamom, star anise, cinnamon, rosehips, local raw wildflower honey, ginger, lemon.

How to use: 1 tablespoon daily for adults; 1 teaspoon for children over 1. Not suitable for infants under 12 months (contains honey).
