Thanks, Roswell Strange for the sample!
Okay, I admit, I am one of those people who do a lot of Googling. I feel like my search engine and I have a very good relationship, she tells me everything I need to know. Google know more about me than anyone, it’ll bet.
So today I turn to my search bar, because, what the hell is a Saskatoon berry? is that even a thing??
Yes. Yes it is.
According to google, it is a fruit that is native to western Canada and was a main source of food for the Native Americans in the ye old times. Nowadays, there are pick-you-own type farms that grow bushes of the stuff. Huh.
I cold brewed this tea for about 10 or so hours, and I have to say, it’s pretty nicely berry flavored. The hibiscus gives it a tart and thick mouthfeel, while I am getting blackberries and blueberries, I am not totally sure what the Saskatoon berry is supposed to taste like, but I am getting a hint of Marionberry or huckleberry that may be from that. it’s a bit like drinking jam, which is a little strange for me. I don’t think I would drink this alone, but I bet it would be killer in a smoothie.

I sent you this one ‘cause I really wanted to share something local; I actually like in Saskatoon – and the city is named after the berry; they’re so popular here! They’re a bit like a cross between blueberries and cranberries.
that sounds like a DELISH desert drink .
**actually live in
What are they like fresh? I feel like they would make great ice cream :P
They’re good in milkshakes, jam and pie for sure – never had a straight up ice cream version though. I imagine it’d be divine though!
