Content

A variant of a delicious preparation of a drink for the winter will be red currant and cherry compote. With a pleasant sour currant and cherry flavor, the drink not only quenches thirst well, but also replenishes the body with vitamins, which is important in winter. The compote is prepared by a single pouring method, and the jars must be clean and sterile. You can choose the proportion of berries according to your taste preferences, and sugar is added to the compote according to the recipe. The recipe is simple and convenient for harvesting a large number of berries.

Ingredients

Red currants 350 gr. Cherry 350 gr. Granulated sugar 300 gr. Water 2.5 l.

Cooking process

For compote, choose strong ripe currants and cherries and preferably freshly picked, as cherries quickly turn sour.

Carefully remove the stalks from the cherries. Then rinse the berries in a colander under running water. Separate the red currants from the twigs and rinse in the same way as the cherries.

Rinse jars with baking soda, rinse well and sterilize in any way. Boil the lids in clean water for a few minutes. Then pour clean berries into the prepared jars, filling them by 1/3 of their volume, but more is possible, the compote will only taste better.

Then pour 300 g of granulated sugar into each jar.

Boil clean drinking water in a saucepan and pour boiling water over the berries in the jars, filling them to the very top so that there is no air left. Close the jars immediately and tightly. Then turn them several times in your hands so that the sugar is completely dissolved, and place them on the lids. Jars with red currant and cherry compote tightly cover for 1 day with a warm blanket and only then transfer to storage in a dark, cool place.

Delicious and successful preparations!
