Wild Cherry Bark

Wild cherry bark has been used in a variety of ways in years past to support the health of the body.
The tree’s reddish-brown bark has traditionally been employed for its wellness-supporting properties.

Wild cherry tree bark was adopted into traditional folk herbalism, the bark is typically employed in herbal syrups, wild cherry bark tea, or liquid extracts. For many people, the flavor of wild cherry bark is instilled in memories of children’s cough syrup and throat lozenges.
Researching the options and experimenting to determine which preparation method is most effective for you.

Using wild cherry bark at home is easy, but it must be handled with care. Unlike other hard materials that need to be decocted, or simmered in boiling water, wild cherry bark must be allowed to steep in hot water and never boiled, or the active compounds in the bark will be lost.

One of the best ways to preserve wild cherry bark is to make a simple syrup, which will last indefinitely if properly stored. To make wild cherry syrup the easy way, just fill a mason jar 2/3 of the way with bark and cover with brandy. After 30-45 days, strain and blend with reserved liquid with an equal amount of honey and bottle.
