My daughter visited Europe and brought me back a gift of Holunder tea, which is popular in places like France and Switzerland.
I enjoy elderberry tea, but I had never had Holunder, which is elderberry flower tea.
This is a lovely tea, with a light taste, and health benefits as well.

Ingredients
~ 16 oz water
~ 2 tablespoons dried elderflowers
~ Sweetener, if desired (I recommend local honey)
Directions
Heat 16 oz water.
Steep the elderflowers for 5 minutes.
I use a stainless steel tea strainer, but you can find paper tea bags or other methods of steeping.
Strain, add sweetener if desired.
Allow to cool, and serve.
I always hear about elderflower tea but I haven’t tried it yet. I should give it a taste. I bet I’d enjoy it.
This tea sounds so good. I do love drink tea in the winter.
I’ve never heard of it but Im interested in learning about the health benefits and trying it.
How cool that your daughter brought back Holunder tea from Europe; it’s like a sip of France and Switzerland in a cup! I’m a fan of elderberry tea, but Holunder sounds intriguing and light—can’t wait to try it.
This is the first time I heard about this kind of flower and be taken as a tea. I can say its nice based on the description you have given to us.

I love elderberry tea but have never tried this brand. I will have to do a search to find out if I can get it here.
Elderflower tea sounds so interesting. I love to drink tea in the fall to winter time. Thanks for sharing
i think i tried elderflower tea with a mix of something else but i should try it by itself too.. the color looks amazing
I typically like the elder flower jellies and jams, I bet the tea would be lovely too!
I had tried Jasmine tea which ended up to be my favorite but I have never tried elderflower one, the mix and technique to prepare it sounds same like my jasmine one!
Im not a tea fan but my co workers are. Ill have to check into this to take into the office.
I’ve heard so many good things about elderflower, so I am so glad to make this elderflower tea at home!
This is the first time I heard about this kind of flower and be taken as a tea. I can’t wait to check it out locally!
This is new to me! I usually have Earl Grey but I would love to try this. After all, sometimes you just want something light.
I don’t think I have tried nor heard of elderflower tea before but that sounds like a wonderful tea to try out.
I wish that I could try this tea. But since I’m on immunosuppressants I can’t take anything that will alter my immune system. It will counteract my medication.
My sister is so into tea. I will have to tell her about this. I bet she’s going to like it.
