Rosehip Drink

Rosehip drink is a treasure trove of vitamin C that boosts immunity and strengthens the body. The rosehips are poured over with boiling water and sugar, left to steep for half an hour covered, then simmered until the color and flavor are rich. It's good for both adults and kids - I recommend it!

Notes

The same rosehips can be simmered a second time - the drink will come out even richer and more nutritious.

Tips

• Don't skip the steeping step: half an hour covered before simmering noticeably opens up the drink's flavor and color.
• The rosehips can be simmered a second time - the second batch of drink comes out even richer and more nutritious.
• Sugar: adjust to taste - for 2 liters I use 8 tablespoons, but the drink is delicious less sweet too.
