Physalis Compote
Description
The drink is quick and easy to prepare. To make the compote, use only berry varieties of physalis, as the vegetable type is mainly suitable for salads, soups, and preserving. If you want to keep the berries whole, cook the compote for no more than 10 minutes; for a more pronounced flavor, cook for 15–20 minutes. Depending on the physalis variety, the compote will have a different aroma and may require more or less sugar. The drink is ready to serve.
