Frozen elderberries

I know how beneficial elderberries are, but I have a bag of them that I froze over a year ago. I meant to make syrup,  but forgot.
Should I just toss them, or would it be worth it to try to make a syrup out of them now?

I suggest taking some berries out and looking at them after they thaw. If they were in a regular non-frost free freezer they will be in better condition than a frost-free freezer, as they will not have went through the constant partial thawing that takes place in frost-free freezers to keep them frost-free.  If they were in a frost-free freezer, I would guess they are no good and probably need to go to the compost. However, in a regular freezer, they might have made it if they were in a well sealed container. If you thaw some, and it looks, smells, and tastes great, then they are probably good to go. If you do decide to make syrup, I  would suggest only making enough syrup to get you through until this next fall and then collect new ones.

We were given some by a neighbour, had intended to make some wine, but never got around to it. Roughly a year later we made syrup out of them instead and had no problems at all.

This is good to know. You have reminded me of my own harvest sitting in deep freeze. Thanks!

Have you found that using a deep freezer is better?
