Ingredients:
3 cups filtered water
1.5 cups raw honey, preferably local
1.5 cups dried elderberries (or 2-3 cups fresh) preferably organic
1. Place dried elderberries (or fresh, ripe elderberries if you have them locally) and filtered water in a medium saucepan.
2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer on medium-low for 30 minutes. The liquid will reduce by about one-third.
3. Remove pan from heat and mash the elderberries to release any remaining juice.
4. Strain the mixture into a glass bowl using a cheesecloth.
5. When the liquid has come to body temperature or lower (about 30 minutes), gently stir in the raw honey and mix thoroughly. Check the syrup with a candy thermometer to be sure it is lower than 118 F/ 48 C. Any higher will destroy the antibiotic properties of the raw honey.
6. Store and label in small, glass, amber bottles.

My preferred dosage when fighting off illness (until symptoms subside) is as follows:
