Gooseberry syrup

A groselha é o refresco clássico português, perfeito para o nosso clima ameno, com o seu sabor frutado e doce, subtilmente cortado pelo travo ácido da fruta. Segundo a receita antiga e com fruta verdadeira, eis a groselha autêntica.

Made from natural redcurrant juice, no colourings or preservativess, it allows you to prepare 7 litres of a very tasty soft drink, more or less sweet depending on your preference.

Pode  experimentar com agua lisa ou com gás, bem fresca e decorar com uma rodela de limão ou folhas de hortelã. É leve, aromático e combina com os sabores de verão.

In a glass or jug, add 1 part syrup and 8 parts water, a few ice cubes and some mint leaves or lemon slices for garnish.

In addition to their more conventional use in soft drinks, these syrups are equally delicious as a syrup for ice cream or yoghurt, crepes or pancakes. It's an ingredient to explore when making cocktails or with sparkling water and a slice of lemon. In the kitchen, it can enrich cakes, biscuits or even savoury dishes such as white meat or baked fish.
