Its fun to make these earthly delights!

!

Hugh and I go out early mornings in the late summer to collect the elderberries and green apples from the marshy area in the pasture next to Dovecote.

Then we soak them in spirits and add specially chosen ingredients like huckleberry vodka, dandelion root, wild cherry bark and elderberry syrup. They steep for about 8-10 weeks. Then I finish them in the little charred oak kegs.

These bitters are delicious on their own or in a cocktail.

As we enter into the holiday season,

I want to thank you for visiting Dovecote our Cashiers home, this summer in  person or vicariously by  joining our newsletter. Thank you!

We really appreciate your patronage of our Garden Talk Salons ( don’t forget they are all available and free on our website: dargan.com)

May you have a blessed, happy and healthy season ahead!

Remember that we love to do landscape consultations … tune-ups are great winter-time gifts.   

Please share this newsletter with your friends…the videos alone are great  gifts!

 

All the best, 

Mary Palmer

    Hey Mary – We have Elderberry bushes growing wild up here – 1 or 2 on our property – I should learn how to brew up some tea with them – Very interesting post 🙂
    Great to be in Denise’ group with you

    HI MPK…
    Thinking about having you send some bitters to my brother for Christmas. Do you have any left? And what size are the little bottles?
    Hope you guys are well.
