- Wash the elderberries thoroughly, pulling off any leftover stems. 2. Put the elderberries in a pot, crush the berries with a pestle, set over low heat, bring to a boil, then cook for 10 minutes and remove from the heat. 3. Line a fine sieve with cheesecloth folded into two layers and press the elderberry mixture through it to extract clean juice — you'll need no more than 600 ml (about 2 1/2 cups) of juice for this amount. 4. Pour the elderberry juice into a pot along with the lemon juice and add the pectin. Set over the heat and bring to a boil. 5. Then add the sugar and oil, wait until the mixture returns to a boil, hold it there for exactly 2 minutes, and ladle it into sterilized jars, sealing them airtight. Have a sweet winter!
