Elderberry with Holly Bellebuono + Bright Vinegar for Colds recipe

  • Summary

  • I’ve been emailing with Holly for years, but as much as we’ve interacted via email and recipe exchange, this was our first time face-to-face and it was great to finally get the chance to meet her! In this episode, Holly shares so much fascinating information about elderberry (one of my very favorite herbs!) - from folklore, to crafty uses for the twigs, to tips for harvesting the berries, and of course the many ways this amazing plant can be worked with medicinally!

    Holly also shared her recipe for Bright Vinegar for Colds, which just looks so delicious and enticing! You’ll find a beautifully-illustrated recipe card for Holly’s recipe here: https://bit.ly/4gGhZar

    When might you turn to elder leaves, flowers, and berries for your health?

    ► When you need a soothing remedy for angry emotions, angry fevers, or angry skin

    ► As a topical first aid ointment for burns

    ► To help shorten the duration of colds and flu (or prevent them from starting in the first place!)

    ► As delicious and nutrient-rich food and drink

    In addition to discussing the many benefits of elderberry, Holly also shared some fantastic tips for learning about herbs, especially for the beginning herbalist - so if you’re new to herbalism you’ll want to be sure to give this episode a listen!

    By the end of this episode, you’ll know:
