Albena, please explain what this *Svirchovitsa*?
*Svirchovina* is the name of a kind of elder wood. With very fragrant flowers, which in fresh and dried form can be used to make syrup, Schweppes, tea for lung diseases, etc.
Benny, congratulations for Schweppes! I wrote the recipe to Favorites.
And this svirchovina where to find it?
can be found everywhere, but it is a little late. I do not know whether it is sold in pharmacies as an herb. See: www.bilki.elena.bg/bilki/svirchovina/index.htm
After Sambucus ebulus / svirchovinata / is dried, should not be flooded with hot water? I did not ever do this.
