Elderberry Elixirs are here! Katrina hand-harvests fresh elderberries in the forest while in season, and purchases certified organic dried elderberries the rest of the year. And this is what she makes from those luscious, flu-fighting purple berries!


Elderberry Elixirs are made with ethically wildcrafted elderberries; Fair trade organic agave; and a blend of extracts:

 
  • Elderberry - powerful antiviral, antimicrobial, immune booster*
  • Echinacea Root and Flower - antimicrobial, immune booster*
  • Ceylon Cinnamon - antimicrobial, antioxidant, warming*


3 oz $15; 8 oz $35


Each small batch of Elderberry Elixir is made by hand using a multi-step extraction process that takes up to three weeks to make:

 
  1. The elderberries are ethically hand-harvested.
  2. The berries are decocted over low heat for several hours to extract all the powerful constituents.
  3. This decoction, once strained, is then gently blended with certified organic, fair-trade agave syrup.
  4. House-made herbal tinctures (alcohol extracts) of immune boosting herbs are then added. The alcohol content also helps as a preservative. Maximum 5% alcohol per bottle.
​
Bottles are reusable and recyclable, and made of amber glass to prevent spoilage and degradation from light. All extracts are handmade in-house by Katrina, with organic grape alcohol. All ingredients are gluten-free and vegan.
