The Story of Syrup
The scent of elderflowers — summer caught in a bottle.
Elderflowers have a short season and an unmistakable scent. We gather them by hand at the beginning of summer, exactly when they bloom — the moment their floral aroma is at its peak. From those flowers, with their delicate extract, we make the syrup.
The result is a floral syrup, slightly sweet, with an aroma that immediately evokes summer gardens and Romanian tradition.
What makes it different
- Elderflower extract 50% — no artificial elderflower flavor
- Inverted sugar — preserves the floral scent without altering it
- Natural lemon juice — balances the floral sweetness
- No preservatives, no colorants, no E-numbers
- Non-GMO ingredients
Elderflower syrup has a long tradition in Romanian households — it was made every summer, from a single flower season, and carefully kept for the cold months. We preserve this tradition in its purest form: concentrated extract from hand-picked flowers, without additives, without shortcuts. A taste you immediately recognize — and which you do not forget.
How to use it
For those who appreciate delicate and authentic flavors. For those who make cocktails at home and look for an ingredient with natural elegance. For mothers who want an uncompromising syrup for their family. For lovers of tradition who know that the best things have a short season.

Frequently asked questions
How concentrated is the syrup? How many ml should I put in a glass?
The elderflower syrup is delicate and floral — the aroma is pleasantly felt even in small quantities. We recommend 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) per 200–250 ml of water or beverage. Adjust to taste.
Why does it have natural deposits?
The syrup contains natural elderflower extract, without complete filtration — natural deposits and pollen aggregates may appear on the surface. These are a sign of the product's authenticity. Shake well before each use.
Does it need to be refrigerated after opening?
Yes. After opening, keep the bottle in the refrigerator between 4–18°C, away from direct sunlight. Shake well before each use.
Does it have contraindications? Can I give it to children?
The product contains no preservatives and has not been treated with ionizing radiation. The ingredients are natural and non-GMO. As with any product containing sugar, moderate consumption is recommended. For children under 1 year or people with specific medical conditions, consult a doctor.
Can it be used in cooking or desserts?
Yes. Elderflower syrup works excellently in creams, glazes, or doughs — it adds a refined floral note. It also works well as a topping for yogurt or panna cotta. The flavors withstand moderate temperatures well.
How long does a 750 ml bottle last?
At 15 ml per serving, a bottle provides ±25 drinks. For moderate daily use — approximately 1+ months for one person.
