What is in Blossom Creek Elderberry Syrup?
We keep it simple. Blossom Creek Elderberry Syrup is handcrafted with filtered water, organic elderberries, organic cinnamon, organic ginger, organic cloves, and local raw mountain wildflower honey.
Our elderberries and spices are brewed in small batches, and the raw honey is added at a low temperature. There are no artificial flavors, additives, or preservatives.
What makes Blossom Creek Elderberry Syrup different?
Blossom Creek is a small, family-owned business in Flowery Branch, Georgia. We handcraft our elderberry syrup in small batches using organic elderberries, organic spices, and local raw mountain wildflower honey.
We add our honey at a low temperature rather than boiling it with the other ingredients, and we never use artificial flavors, additives, or preservatives.
Our recipe was created for our own family in 2016, and we're still making it with the same care and attention to ingredients today.
Why elderberry?
Elderberries have been used traditionally for generations and naturally contain plant compounds including anthocyanins, flavonoids, and phenolic acids.
We believe everyone should be an advocate for their own health and encourage our customers to do their own research and decide what is right for themselves and their families.
For those who would like to learn more about elderberry, we recommend looking to reputable medical and scientific sources for current research.
Why do you use raw, unfiltered honey?
We use local raw mountain wildflower honey to give our elderberry syrup a light, natural sweetness. We add the honey at a low temperature rather than boiling it with the other ingredients, helping preserve the naturally occurring enzymes and other qualities of raw honey.
Using raw, unfiltered honey—and being careful about how we add it—is an important part of how we've made Blossom Creek Elderberry Syrup from the beginning.
