My Mulberry's Cordial

Each year our weeping mulberry gives many fruits in April. I thought it's a shame not to take advantage of these delicious berries and syrups and soft drinks to have during the summer.

The first step is to collect the berries of the tree; advise the use of latex gloves to keep your hands clean (the fruit juice loose an outrageous as to dyeing!)

This step is to extract the juice of the berries; why after rinsing properly if any, was weighed and added 20cl. of water per kilo of fruit. Below boil.

Now it comes to squeezing fruit to extract the most juice. For this I use a pass puree and Chinese as a sieve.

this is to insist recover as much juice as possible

will now weigh the juice and add the sugar at 700gr. of sugar per liter of juice extracted

for the elaboration of the syrup itself, seethe m'lange the juice / sugar over low heat for 5 minutes.
after we put in the bottle (preferably dark glass) ensuring Scalding bottle before filling


Enjoy it !!
