attracted by flowers, just like a bee 🐝🥰 i can already taste it 😋 my dried elderflower from last year is almost empty, will collect some this week 🤍
Good morning and happy Sunday Nostr Fam 🌞
I Woke up early, went for a walk with my furry companion, I smelled from far sweet Elderflowers...On the way home I collected some Elderflowers and made myself a delicious tea (drinking it, while writing this).
When using fresh and delicate flowers I recommended using hot water up to max. 80°C (176F), to preserve the delicate aromas and achieve a smooth, soothing taste 🌱
🤓 Elderflower tea is known for boosting the immune system, providing anti-inflammatory properties, and acting as a natural remedy for cold and flu symptoms. It is rich in antioxidants like flavonoids and phenolic acids, which help protect the body against oxidative stress and cellular damage. Elderflower tea can also enhance skin health by promoting better hydration and circulation, leading to a more radiant complexion. Additionally, it can aid digestion and relieve common digestive issues, such as constipation, due to its mild laxative properties.
Have a peaceful loving Sunday 🕊️

Hihi...yes...like a bee...they smell so sweet!
It's such a magical plant. It's kind of strange, that most people cook it and make syrup and jelly with it, mostly with tons of industrial sugar...
Instead of just drying it. You know what's good 🫶🏻
I don’t even know what elderflower is. So I am pretty impressed by the two of you 💜
Holunder in german 🤍
Ja, okay dit kenn ick! 💜
Nix exotisches 😉
Klingt auf Englisch auf jeden Fall majestätischer, so viel ist klar 😅
Vielleicht kommt Holunder von Holy (Heilig)? Who knows...
Das hat das gute, alte Internet ausgespuckt.
"Die allgemein akzeptierte etymologische Erklärung ist, dass Holunder auf die Eigenschaft „hohl“ der Äste zurückgeht. Die volksetymologische Verknüpfung mit positiven, schützenden oder freundlichen Bedeutungen (Holder, Holle) ist kulturgeschichtlich interessant, aber sprachwissenschaftlich sekundär." nostr:nprofile1qyd8wumn8ghj74rgv4rx7un9wd6zumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6qg4waehxw309anhyet9deek7atv9eehqctrv5qzq2tggt42akd7ttsxdrdqnljg4tq9y8z2lpv664rajv29ukkrfst7sqg45h
