ELDERBERRIES - Frontier Co-op Elderberries (botanical name: Sambucus nigra) are part of the honeysuckle family. They are attractive, dark berries that are used to make jams, syrups, juices, and wine. They are often part of sweet treats, too such as pies, crumbles, and more.
FLAVORFUL, VERSATILE BERRIES - Elderberries deliver flexible options for many culinary needs. They are used in sweet syrups and desserts, and they provide a pleasant, fruity aroma. This dark, purple berry also complements teas and warming winter cordials.
ROBUST AND TANGY - European elderberries are not the sweetest variety of berries available, but they are tart or bitter depending on the way you use them. Their flavor develops when mixed in foods or drinks.
SUSTAINABLY GROWN IN BULGARIA - Our Bulgarian farmers grow these berries using non-irradiated processes and harvest them at the peak of their flavor. They maintain the plants moisture using unique and clean cropping techniques. Frontier Co-op Elderberries are also 100% kosher certified.
