Viburnum compote
Description
The drink is quick and easy to prepare. Pick the berries after the first frosts – this will remove their astringent taste. But even if there have been no frosts yet and you really want compote, your regular freezer will help! Wash the berries, remove them from the stems, place in a container, and put in the freezer for 1 hour. Then cook the compote as instructed in the recipe. The drink is ready to serve.
