Re: The European elderberry
Well, some people add a little yeast. You know, yeast + sugar + water = booze. Does flavour even matter?

Re: The European elderberry
That probably a good idea! I don’t think Queen Ann’s Lace will hurt you, but it looks a lot like hemlock. That’s one of those you can only drink once!

Re: The European elderberry
It's that time of year again, our elderberry bush has bloomed and my wife has made the cider again. Tastes amazing!
- Elderberry bush flowers ready to be harvested.
- Emptied the large jar in bottles. It sat out in the sun for a few days.
- A little bubbly and sweet and sour with a subtle taste of elderberry flowers!

Re: The European elderberry
There really isn’t anything like enjoying something you grew and harvested. It just seems to taste a little better. Well done @Eugen !
