We have these star gooseberries growing in our garden. These fruits are sour but some like to eat them. I prepare a juice by soaking them in sugar and keeping the container in the fridge The sugar absorbs the juice from the fruits and we get a concentrate which is diluted in water. This is a refreshing drink specially in summer. It also has some health properties.

That is really nice and I agree goose berries are good for health. Here the season is off and become costly. The star gooseberries are not available here also.

Not many know how to make use of them and most get wasted.

@allknowing I have learnt a new method from you. I make goosberry juice but cutting into pieces, removing its seed and grind it then squeeze it.

@Sreekala If you are talking about goose berries that will take time but star berry juice gets ready in 8 days.

This fruit's name is interesting. I don't know what they are. If they are sour, perhaps they will not be so delicious?

Do you have them in your garden? Try my method. You will get a delicious concentrate which you can dilute and have.

Sounds lovely. We don't get trees that produce that. We are thinking of getting some fruit trees though.
