Observations

Aronia berry natural syrup (juice) with ginger and honey prepared cold:

For those who have problems with the strong taste of aronia berry, a good solution is to include ginger and lemon in the juice.

Bee honey also has a preservative effect.

Aronia fruits can be harvested from mid-August to the end of September. The later they are harvested, the sweeter they are, but the raisin / dehydration effect also occurs. If the fruits are withered / dehydrated, they can be hydrated, leaving them in water for a few hours.

It is recommended that the syrup bottles not be filled to the brim, especially if they have a small opening, as it can form like a stopper and the juice will not flow.

A good way to preserve aronia berry fruit in the long run is to freeze it.

The aronia berry pulp left after squeezing, can be dried and then consumed as an infusion in teas or ground powder in various beverages.

Administration

It can be consumed as such 1-2 tablespoons, 30 minutes before meals or as a soft drink (aronia berry juice) with mineral or plain water.

It can also be used in various cocktails.
