Sweets Syrup
Sweet’s Syrup combines organic elderberries with raw local honey and spices specifically chosen for their individual properties plus great flavor. Their ingredient list is short, SWEET, and 100% pronounceable!
After a loved one was diagnosed with a chronic illness, Stephanie Rickenbaker got serious about clean living. She reduced her family’s exposure to toxins and learned about boosting health through nutrition.
During this journey, Stephanie developed an organic elderberry syrup. Her daughter, nicknamed “Sweet,” loved the syrup so much that Stephanie named it for her. In a short time, Sweet’s Syrup catapulted from a kitchen creation sold among friends to a household name.
