Cranberry compote without sealing
Description
The drink is quick and easy to prepare. The main ingredients for making currant compote without sealing are berries and sugar. For a brighter and richer color, you can optionally add red currants, raspberries, or cherries, for example. 1. Thoroughly wash the currants under running water and place them into a large pot. 2. The minimum amount of water needed for 1 kilogram of berries is about 2.5 liters. If you're adding other fruits or berries, you can increase the amount of water. In this case, red and white currants are added for color and aroma. The most important thing is to ensure the compote has a rich flavor. 3. Place the pot on the stove, bring to a boil, add sugar, then reduce the heat. Let it simmer for about 5–7 minutes. 4. Cover the pot with a lid and let it steep for approximately 30 minutes. 5. Then taste the result. If the homemade currant compote turns out too sweet, you can add a pinch of citric acid. 6. Allow the compote to cool completely. Before serving, you can add refreshing mint or a few ice cubes to the glass.
