If you only make one home remedy for yourself this Autumn, it should be either Elderberry cordial or syrup. Elderberry is packed full of vitamin C, powerful antioxidants and well known for it`s anti-viral, immune boosting properties. I always have a cordial or syrup at hand over the winter months and it is very effective at nipping colds & flu in the bud at the very first signs of a sore throat, cough or sniffle.

This recipe is just for YOU and not one to share with your dogs. Elderberries must be cooked before consuming and discard the leaves, stems, and any unripe green berries before cooking.
