These small white flowers bloom in clusters during the late spring and early summer, and they are a popular ingredient in cooking and herbal medicine. Elderflowers have been used for centuries in traditional medicine for their anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties. They are also commonly used to flavor teas, syrups, jams, and desserts, and to make elderflower liqueurs and wines. In this way, elderflowers have become a beloved ingredient in many cultures around the world, valued not only for their flavor but also for their potential health benefits.
