Red Currant Sour Drink
- 300 grams Red currants
- 300 grams Granulated sugar
- 300 ml Pure rice vinegar
- Rinse the red currants, and remove any dirt.
- You can use as they are, no matter the size and stem or no stem.
- Clean the red currants thoroughly, and put them in a jar that was sterilized with boiling water.
- Add the red currants, sugar and vinegar in that order.
- It looks pretty when you watch them dissolve.
- After 1 hour or so, the sugar will settle at the bottom of the jar.
- The sugar dissolves quicker if you lay the jar on its side and roll around, or stir with cooking chopsticks.
- After the sugar has dissolved, let it sit for 2-3 days to bring out the flavors.
- Dilute it to taste, and enjoy!
- My oldest daughter likes to dilute it with milk since it turns out like a yogurt drink.This milk was pasteurized at a low temperature and it's light, so it's perfect for this sour drink!
- Children loves diluting it with soda water.
- The plump texture of the red currants gives this drink a unique accent.
- I put the ingredients in a jar during the day, and stirred with cooking chopsticks in the evening.
- You can drink it straight away, but it will be tastier if you let it sit for a while to bring out the full flavor.
- The translucent red color of red currants is so beautiful.
- Red currant jam is also delicious!
- They are great for a salad, too.
