More fruit of the vine, er bush

Elderberries are ready to pick and lots of them. I'll blend the juice with other wild fruit , blackberry and muscadine to make jelly this fall when the muscies are ripe. This was the year of the berry, all the wild fruit vines have been overloaded. And the Japenese beetles have not been that bad, just lots of briers and chiggers. There maybe enough fruit this year to make wine, I haven't made it in years. Most of the time my recipe makes wine and sometimes it turns to the best vinegar you ever tasted, maybe I'll make wild berry vinegar and forget the wine. I have options.
