For dried elderberries, a quick rinse under cold water will suffice.\n<li><strong>Soaking: Place the elderberries in a large bowl and cover them with distilled water. Let them soak overnight to help release their juices naturally.\n<li><strong>Mashing and Extracting Juice: The next day, mash the elderberries using a spoon or a potato masher to break them down further and release more juice.\n<li><strong>Straining: Place a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth over another bowl or pitcher and pour the mashed berries and liquid through it. Press the berry mixture to squeeze out all the juice.\n<li><strong>Optional Sweetening and Preservation: While this step is optional, adding a natural sweetener can enhance the flavor. If you choose to add sweetener and\/or lemon juice, mix it in thoroughly now.\n\n<h4>Storage\n</h4><p>Pour the finished elderberry juice into clean bottles or jars. If you added lemon juice, the syrup could be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Without lemon juice, consider storing it in the freezer in small batches to use as needed.\n</p><h4>Homemade elderberry juice is a wonderful way to tap into the natural benefits of these potent berries.\n</h4><p>This no-cook method is not only easy but also preserves the raw qualities of the elderberries, making your syrup a healthy addition to your daily routine. Enjoy it diluted in water, drizzled over pancakes, or as a sweet addition to your favorite beverage.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"</p><p>Elderberries are celebrated for their rich flavor and numerous health benefits, including boosting the immune system and fighting off colds and flu.
