Elderberry gummies ❤
Jan has been busy experimenting with a new way to incorporate elderberries into our daily prep-for-autumn routine, and she's made these delicious elderberry gummies, chock full of vitamins and antioxidants. Elderberries are such a good anti-viral and thus a fantastic support for the immune system. Recipe is as follows:
Elderberry syrup
• 1½ cup fresh berries
• 1 tsp cinnamon / one whole stick
• 1 cup apple juice
• 2 tsp grated ginger
• 1 tsp cloves
• Dash of black pepper
• 2 tsp turmeric
• 1 Tbsp. white sage
• 1 cup honey
Simmer berries, spices, and apple juice for 20-30 minutes, then strain and add honey. Adjust spices to taste (we're thinking to try and double the amount next time!)
Elderberry gummies
• 1½ cup elderberry syrup
• 4 Tbsp. gelatine
Mix the syrup and gelatine well until gelatine is dissolved, then beat together. Fill ice cube trays and store in the fridge. You can eat one a day.

Poll: Do you think Waikato needs an agency to grow its economy?
Waikato may be getting a new ‘go-to’ body for building the region’s economy.
The previous economic development agency, Te Waka, shut down earlier this year, saying the “passionate advocates” no longer had the resources to do what they’d planned.
