We were fortunate to find some sumac horns recently while out on a forage and I thought I'd show you guys a very simple way to make sumac lemonade
First, pick a couple of nice ripe sumac pods, make sure it's not poison sumac!
Put them in a pot and slowly bring up to a very low simmer
As soon as it starts to simmer take it off the heat and let the pods sit in the pan for 24 hours, then strain.
After pouring through a muslin cloth, squeeze the berries to extract any remaining juice
Add a little sugar syrup if its too tart, chill in the fridge and enjoy, this is a really delicious drink somewhere of a cross between lemon and buckthorn..
