One part shrub to ten to fifteen parts mineral water makes raspberry lemonade. Non-alcoholic, 250 ml in a glass bottle.

Shrub is a vinegar-based fruit syrup made from three ingredients. Whole raspberries are soaked in apple cider vinegar for several weeks. Then they are pressed, the fruit vinegar is seasoned with sugar and filled hot. The vinegar acidifies and highlights the fruit; according to the manufacturer, the flavor comes one hundred percent from the raspberry. This particular variety has history: in the 19th century, raspberry shrub was a common vinegar-fruit drink in the USA, long before refrigerators and ready-made lemonade. Hanna Schuster, a graduate food technologist, discovered shrub during a semester abroad in Pennsylvania and developed the first recipe for the Steigerwald region with her mother. Their shrubs have been available since 2012, and the raspberry variety is, according to the manufacturer, the favorite of the Schuster children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFlavor\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eRaspberry Shrub tastes like ripe raspberries, fresh and with the clear acidity of apple cider vinegar. The color is bright red and comes solely from the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eDiluted with cold sparkling water, it becomes a raspberry lemonade, as the manufacturer describes: old-fashioned, without added flavorings. The acidity keeps the sweetness in check, which is why the lemonade tastes like berries rather than sugar. The syrup is strong and concentrated on its own – that is how it is intended. Those who expect a soft, sweet raspberry lemonade will find the shrub tart. Those who like raspberries fresh from the bush will find exactly that in their glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUse\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor raspberry lemonade, add 1.5 to 2 cl of shrub to a 0.2-liter glass and top up with ice-cold, sparkling mineral water, i.e., a ratio of 1:10 to 1:15.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith sparkling wine or Prosecco instead of water, it becomes a fruity aperitif at a 1:10 ratio. For long summer evenings, the shrub serves as the base for a raspberry punch. For dressing, follow the manufacturer's basic formula: shrub, a dash of lemon juice, oil, salt, and pepper – especially good with lamb's lettuce. In desserts, pour the syrup as a coulis over panna cotta or stir it into cake cream and glaze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eStore the bottle in a cool, dark place so that the red of the raspberry remains bright for a long time. According to the manufacturer, the shrub has a shelf life of three years and can be stored without refrigeration even after opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e For a quick punch, add fresh raspberries and a few mint leaves to a carafe, add 4 cl of shrub, and top up with cold sparkling water or sparkling wine. After half an hour in the refrigerator, the punch will have color and fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOrigin\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eSchusters Spezialitäten is a small family business in Untersteinbach, in the municipality of Rauhenebrach in the Haßberge district, in the Steigerwald region of Franconia.
