Dried rose hips can be purchased at a pharmacy or store, but it is better to use those collected independently in environmentally friendly places and dried according to the rules (in a well-ventilated place, not in direct sunlight).

Step 3

Rinse dried rose hips thoroughly. It’s even better to pour boiling water over it to remove plaque and dust that may be on the surface of the berries. Place the berries in a saucepan or other container for making compote, crush the rose hips a little with a masher, but do not grind them into dust. The berries should remain intact.

Step 4

Before pouring the compote into cups, it is better to strain it through a strainer. If the compote tastes too concentrated and strong, then it can be diluted with boiled cold or warm water. Bon appetit!
