Elderberry and Honey Syrup from Our Shelf

Cooler weather changes what you reach for in the kitchen.

Hot tea comes back. Toast gets a little more attention. Someone asks if there is anything dark and berry-sweet for the mug, the yogurt, or the glaze you're stirring on a weeknight.

That is when our Elderberry & Honey Syrup earns its place on the shelf.

We make this bottle at the production studio in Richmond. Honey from the Bremo Bluff Honey House, elderberry fruit, lemon, and a short spice line of cinnamon bark, ginger root, and clove. Your sizes are 8 oz and 16 oz, at $19.50 and $29.50. You'll find it on Ciders & Syrups beside the three fire ciders, and it also shows on Herbal Supplements.

What is in the bottle

The ingredient list is short on purpose: water, honey, elderberry fruit, lemon juice, cinnamon bark, ginger root, and clove.

Honey is not a garnish here. It is the farm in the bottle, the same way honey belongs in our fire ciders. What you get is a food-and-herb syrup with a deep berry note, a little citrus lift, and warm spice at the finish. Not a warehouse flavor line. Not a jar we ask you to simmer for a weekend.

Think kitchen first. A spoon into hot tea. A swirl over yogurt or oatmeal. A brush on roasted fruit or a simple glaze.

Syrup, not fire cider

If you want vinegar, plants, and honey, that is fire cider. Herbs & Honey, Heat & Honey, or Berries, Florals & Honey live on the same collection. They are vinegar bottles. This one is syrup: water, honey, elderberry, lemon, and spice.

Plenty of people keep both on the counter. Two bottles, two jobs, two flavors. We don't sell a mash-up jug. LOL. Elderberry syrup is great for overall immune support. It also makes a great fall cocktail.

If you want a named honey jar for the table instead, open the honey collection. That is the food aisle for toast and boards. This blog is the syrup.

A short plan

Open the elderberry page. Choose 8 oz or 16 oz. Add it.

If the same order needs a named honey jar, pull that from the honey collection. If it needs a fire cider, add the cider from the cider shelf.

Order online. Ship it, or choose farm pickup. We email or text to set the pickup time.

Farm store: 3456 James Madison Hwy, Bremo Bluff, VA 23022. Monday and Friday 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Tuesday through Thursday by appointment only. Saturday and Sunday closed (private tours and appointments only). Phone (804) 380-5820.

Stony Point: 9200 Stony Point Parkway Ste 158A, Richmond. Tuesday through Thursday 10 to 4 or by appointment. Check hours and the driveway before you drive.

We'll post the last ship date when we lock it. Until that line is public, do not build a holiday plan around a cutoff we haven't published.

Shop Elderberry & Honey Syrup. Browse the rest of Ciders & Syrups if a fire cider belongs in the same order.
