Ingredients

Cooking process

step 1 out of 5
Sort black currants and gooseberries, remove twigs, leaves and other debris. Throw away suppressed, rotten, bird-pecked berries. Cut off the tails of the berries. For compote, it is better to take firm, even slightly unripe berries so that they retain their shape and float beautifully in the finished drink.
step 2 out of 5
Rinse the berries thoroughly several times with running water to wash off dust and small debris. Rinse the berries until the water runs clear.
step 3 out of 5
Wash the lemon with soap, rinse, scald with boiling water and cut into quarters without removing the zest.
Pour water and sugar into a large saucepan. Place a saucepan over high heat and bring the water to a boil. Add granulated sugar and stir until dissolved.
step 4 out of 5
Put the berries and lemon quarters into the boiling sugar syrup, carefully so as not to burn yourself. Reduce heat to medium. Cook the compote for 10-15 minutes.
step 5 out of 5
The finished drink can be drained from the berries immediately, or you can leave it to infuse for half an hour. Allow to cool to room temperature and refrigerate. Serve with ice cubes or sprigs of herbs such as mint or lemon balm. If desired, you can dilute the finished compote with boiled water to reduce the sweetness to your liking.

Bon Appetit!
