This is the ratio my elderberry syrup has and why it lasts as long as it does!
It's a 1 to 1 ratio!! 🍯
Honey naturally acts as a preservative and helps extend the shelf life!
We go through a bottle pretty quickly in my house, but if you happen to have one get pushed to the back of the fridge and out of sight, out of mind it will still last you at least 2 months! Some syrups from other companies or small businesses may give you a 2 week shelf life but it's because they have a different ratio with how much honey is added, and sometimes you can tell if the syrup seems to be a bit on the watery side too.
I keep my ratio at a 1 to 1 not only for a longer shelf life but also because raw unfiltered honey is so so good for your immune system!
I also don't keep a supply of already made bottles on hand so every order placed is made when you order, unless I'm posting about an extra bottle I have available for purchase. So if want to try a bottle to help boost your immune system send me a message!
