Compote of seasonal berries and fruits is just what you need on a hot day.
However, often the drink turns out too sour due to overly sour products.
Culinary expert of HERE NEWS, chef and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova will share with you her culinary life hacks on what to do in such a case.
Ways to save sour compote
So, if the drink turns out too sour for your taste, and you don’t want to add sugar, there are other ways to fix the situation.
For example, you can sweeten compote using honey. But in this case, you need to take into account that you cannot boil the drink again if you add honey.
You can also make jelly from sour compote.
Another radical method will require additional ingredients. You need to add sweet berries and fruits, sugar if necessary, and water to the resulting sour drink.
The compote needs to be boiled again until ready. This method differs in that you will get even more of the drink and it will taste exactly the way you want it to.
