Extra elderberry jam with apple juice
When elderflowers are not harvested, they turn into clusters of black-purple berries that we collect and process to create this delicious jam with a traditional flavor and berry notes. Apple juice enhances the aromas of the forest undergrowth.
Elderberries are also known for their medicinal properties, including antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects, which help support the immune system and promote respiratory health.
