About this item
- Whole dried elderberries (Sambucus nigra) — the celebrated wellness botanical used for centuries across European and North American herbal traditions. Deep, dark, and richly flavored, elderberry makes a tart, naturally fruity herbal tea with a dark color.
- 100% pure Sambucus nigra whole dried elderberries — no fillers, no additives, no artificial flavoring. Rich in naturally occurring antioxidants and polyphenols. Whole berry format retains far more natural compounds than processed elderberry powder.
- Naturally caffeine free. Elderberry has a centuries-long history as a wellness botanical, especially valued during seasonal transitions. Ideal for brewing tea, preparing homemade elderberry syrup, making tinctures, or infusing into honey and shrubs.
- Steep 1–2 teaspoons per 8 oz of water at 203°F for 4 minutes.
