The Harvest Time

Chokeberry - my new passion

I'm not a country girl and I'm not used take some salat or herbs or potatoes right from the earth. It makes me so suprised and happy when I can really eat someting I have grown by my self!
Yesterday I made juice of chokeberrys and I love it. The berry is not tasting good if you eat it just like that, but when you make juice it is little like wine. I must admit I used a lot of sugar.It's also very healthy. I don't drink any alcohol so It's good to have someting so delicous to make a toast with!




A toast to long hot summer!



The chokeberry bush with bunches of lovely black berries. They are so easy to pick. 



It took some ten minutes to gather about five liters. They are very sour if you eat them raw.



This is my new machine to make juice. You put water into the bottom level and berries into a toplevel, cook and open the tap, juice is running...



So here it is! My chokeberry juice! It is almost black.  It's a also really nice to make  beautiful look for the bottle also...
