These dried Elderberries are great for making a brew that's a little different.

If you've made wines before and are feeling like something in the hedgerow range, then using dried elderberries to make an elderberry wine is a good place to start.

Rehydrate the elderberries before using.  Put them in a bowl and pour over equal amounts of boiling water to the fruit.  E.g. 500g of fruit, use 500ml water.  Leave for 12-24 hours to rehydrate.

Use the rehydrated elderberries to make elderberry wine out of season.

You can also use elderberries when making gin.  Just a small handful can add an amazing pink blush to your finished gin.

Put a handful of elderberries into your gallon of apple juice when making homemade cider.  It will add a light blush to the cider and make it look amazing.

Good replacement for the real thing

I'd been hoping to collect fresh berries, but the hungry birds got there first. These dried elderberries seem to be a reasonable substitute (admittedly at a bit of a financial cost), although there's something about the aroma that seems to be missing.
I used them as part of a port-style recipe, so I'm hoping that the other fresh ingredients will make up for any deficiencies.

A useful buy

My usual go to plase seems to be have been stripped before I got there, so these can be added to those I managed to pcik and at least help me salvage some wine, so they are useful to have.
