I tend to think that the low temperatures might not be a good thing. I've kept Elderberry syrup in the frig for months though. The sugar keeps it from spoiling too quickly if it is refrigerated. Angela,

I don't want any to go to waste! I’ve made a batch of the syrup and wondered if anyone knew whether the rest could be frozen since we will not be able to finish it before we go away for a week.

I think I'd use it sparingly or as a treat on pancakes, etc. Well, its very sweet, like you’d expect a syrup to be, and I think it tastes very good… even though elderberries on the bush don’t smell good to me.

I am going to figure out how to get some and make some of this stuff! Does it taste good and do you recommend it on grains or oatmeal, etc? As a sweetner? I am trying to lay off any sugars.

Hope you have great success! You can use 1/2 cup dried elderberries in place of every cup of fresh elderberries. Hope you have great success!

I've been wanting to make this, but doubt I could ever get my hands on fresh ones in Nebraska! Thanks! Does anyone have the conversion for making elderberry syrup with dried elderberries?

This is our first year of taking the syrup daily and we skated through this flu season with barely a sniffle. I never thought about making it homemade, but will be scouting our property for elderberry bushes this May. Thanks! Hi Sylvia,
