First year to have a yield on my Blackcurrant Bushes.
We’re not ready yet but I’m trying to be prepared.
I have no idea how many we will get but we have 3 bushes.
I’ve googled Jam, Cordial and Cake recipes.
I would love to hear of any tested and tried recipes and storage tips.

I know Mum makes a simple blackcurrant pie, and it is superb!

Blackcurrant cordial! Have you read the Anne of Green Gables books, Elaine? I can’t think of cordial without thinking of the time that Anne inadvertently gives her friend wine instead of cordial. And gives her enough to cause her to become inebriated! Its such a funny part of the book!

No blackcurrant recipes I’m afraid. I look forward to seeing the rest of your crops from your garden. Thanks for visiting my blog.

Hi Elaine,
Our garage is not a typical garage at all. there is a bottom story that is a shop. Most garages are one story, connected to the house, and if they are detached they are usually just a one or two car garage. I hope that clarifies…

[...] a little concerned that the blackcurrant bushes are going to be ripe for the picking during the time period of our holiday so I’m dithering [...]
