Can someone recommend me an elderberry tincture recipe from UK website please. I have searched a lot here and online and all I seem to find is lots of American websites and personal websites of posh looking American ladies. I have no problem with them looking posh or American! But I wish to read from a reliable UK website and from someone with knowledge, wisdom, culture of local herbs and medicines etc. Especially because Elderberry is toxic and also all these American websites talk about 80% proof for the alcohol which I have searched and found is double of ABV but I would still like a UK version please.

My first port of call with anything this specialised would be to have a good read of some Reddit threads related to it, and go from there initially.

Here's a Google search using the words reddit elderberry tincture recipe, which might hopefully help with some of your general points, even if it's not necessary a UK-specific forum -

The other thing you can do with Google search is to specify a '.co.uk' site search, and also then include some additional search terms, so here's a Google search link using the words site:.co.uk elderberry tincture recipe, which might help you focus in on UK specific elderberry recipe pages -

Hopefully there's something in those two areas that might be helpful.

Cheers,
