A shrub is a drinking or sipping vinegar originally from Turkey and Persia that is a fantastic addition to any drink trolley. Shrubs are made from vinegar, fruit and a sweetener like honey or sugar.
Shrubs taste similar to kombucha. Definitively tart, slightly sweet and infused with flavours of fruit, berries and herbs.
Adding to any drink, virtuous or not, adds layers of flavour.ย They are super easy to make.
Two ways to make a shrub:
- stove-cooking or
- cold-process.
Stove-cooking is easier and faster, but cold-process yields better flavour. Personally, I like taking my time to get a more robust flavour.
๐ด๐๐๐๐๐ :
- 1 cup Raspberry
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1 cup Apple cider vinegar
- Boil some water, then sterilise whatever container you will use to make the shrub in.
- Add raspberries to the container in a thin layer. Sprinkle sugar evenly over them.
- Crush the fruit to increase the constant between ingredients.
- Rest in the fridge for anything between 6 and 24 hours. The ideal result is the vast majority of the sugar has dissolved.
- Strain the pulp, skins and pips from the mixture.
- Add the vinegar and refrigerate.
- Shake before use.
