ELDERBERRY BLOSSOM ICED TEA (W/OPTIONAL ADDITIONS)
Basic tea recipe from ehow.com and elaborated by yours truly. *Be very certain* the flowers you use for this recipe are not sprayed with pesticides and are the edible variety! We grow the European 'Black Lace' Elderberry with soft pale pink flowers. A visually striking plant! Experiment with other additions to the iced tea-don't limit yourself only to what I have suggested below. A note that elderberry is a unique, *acquired* taste for some.

Steps:
- Pick fresh elder flowers from an elderberry tree. Remove the blooms from the stems and discard stems.
- Place 2 to 4 fresh elder flowers in a heatproof bowl. (I tested this recipe using 3 stems of elderflowers and 6 cups of water).
- Boil the water.
- Pour the boiled water over the flowers to cover.
- Cover the bowl and allow the flowers to steep for about 10 minutes.
- Strain the tea and set aside to cool then refrigerate until well chilled. (Can also be served hot.).
- To serve, pour the chilled tea over ice cubes. Stir in your favorite additions.
- I floated a few of the individual blossoms on top of the tea.

- Place one tablespoon of fresh elderflower blossoms or dried elderflowers into a pot and pour over one cup of boiling water.
- Let it steep for 10 minutes or longer to extract all medicinal properties of Elderflower into this cup of tea.
- Strain the blossoms and drink pure warm tea that is lighter in flavor but tasty enough to drink it even if you are not treating a cold or fever.
- I like to add ginger or turmeric to add the taste. Honey and lemon make also great addition. Fresh elderflowers might be harder on the stomach so if that is your concern use dried elderflowers instead.
