Brewing

To truly savor the fruity taste of elderberry tea to its fullest extent it's crucial to brew it correctly. Here is an easy to follow guide, for crafting the perfect cup...

To bring out the flavor of the dried elderberries fully it's best to use freshly boiled water at approximately 100°C (212°F).

For a serving of elderberry tea you can start with approximately 1 to 1 and a half teaspoons of dried elderberries for every 200ml of water used in brewing the tea based on your personal taste preferences and how strong you want the flavor to be. 

Steep the elderberries, for about 5 to 10 minutes to enhance the flavor. Steep equals stronger taste and shorter steep gives a more subtle brew. 

Elderberry tea tastes great by itself. You can enhance it with a hint of honey for added sweetness or a slice of lemon, for some tanginess. For a luxurious experience try adding a dash of cinnamon or a couple of cloves while letting the tea steep.
