I love elderberries. We’re growing them here on our small farm, far from any major road, without pesticides, and we harvest them ourselves. I also love tea. Nice warm cup in your hands, you have to take a minute to let it cool, smell the aromatic steam when you blow on it. Tea makes you take a minute to relax and appreciate what’s around you.
I’ve made elderberry syrup for my family to help keep our immune system strong for decades. Prior to growing our own berries, I’d been buying organic elderberries online, and I realized that the berries I’d been buying online weren’t from the USA. What does organic mean in other countries? I started looking for local sources, and we decided to put in a few bushes of our own. Then a few more, then a few hundred. I want to know where the elderberry I give my family comes from. I don’t want even organic pesticides, and no car exhaust from foraging bushes found along the roadside.
I started looking for recipes for an elderberry tea in 2019, when we were getting our first little bits of elderberries from our bushes. I wanted something healthy for my family. I experimented with a lot of recipes, and put this together as a result of all those trials.
There is no caffeine in this loose tea, not even any tea leaves. There are no fillers. I use the whole berry, cook it down with organic spices, and dehydrate it, juice and all. It’s only cooked, dehydrated elderberries and spices. The flavor is there, and the elderberry is there. About half a pound of ripe elderberries goes into one packet of tea.
