Elder flowers (Sambucus canadensis, S. nigra) are soothing and healing for the skin. Try this fresh, easy-to-make herbal recipe to smooth your skin, condition your hair, and rejuvenate your entire body.  RECIPE:
Place elderflowers in a stainless steel or enamel saucepan and cover with fresh spring or distilled water. Cover and slowly heat to just below a simmer. Turn the heat as low as it will go and continue heating for about ten minutes tightly covered. Turn off the heat and allow all to sit, covered, overnight. The next morning, strain the infusion off. You will need to strain at least twice through muslin or kitchen towel to remove all the floating debris. Add a quarter of the volume in alcohol as a preservative. Bottle and keep in a cool dark place.
