Did you know that our Elderberry Syrup doesn't just have elderberries in it? A few years ago, our founder, Jenny, discovered aronia berries and their incredibly high antioxidant levels and knew she needed these in her elderberry syrup. It is a huge reason why so many people choose our 5 star rated Elderberry Syrup.
