½
c.
dried elderberries
or 1 cup fresh
2
cinnamon sticks
3
c.
water

1
c.
honey
I used local raw honey
Instructions
Put your elderberries, cinnamon and water into a pot.
Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 1 hour. You are looking for the liquid to reduce by almost half.
After it has reduced, remove from burner to let cool.
Strain out berries and cinnamon sticks.
Pour honey into the jar in which you are going to store your syrup. When syrup is cool enough to touch (not cold, but not too hot) add to honey.
Stir until mixture is blended.
Store in refridge!
