Foraging Queen of the Backyard Kingdom 2022
elderberry-blackberry-orange-cider
Elderberries and blackberries grow around the ciderworks and our friend Colleen has some lovely orange trees in her backyard. So, naturally we made a syrup with all of those things and fermented it with some Braeburn, Granny Smith, and Pink Lady apples, what we call the bearded queen blend. Is it too long a name? Maybe. Oh yeah, and it's pink.
