Not Kosher for Passover
**Not kosher for Passover.** Saint-Germain liqueur is made from elderflower extract, neutral alcohol, sugar, and water, but its production involves grain-based neutral spirits (typically from wheat or corn), which are chametz (leavened grains) forbidden during Passover. It lacks kosher certification, and even if the base were potato-based (rare for such liqueurs), Passover-specific supervision is required to ensure no chametz contact during processing—none of which applies here, per standard kosher guidelines from authorities like the OU or Star-K.
