Learn the Ancient Art of Shrub Making

Shrubs were a popular drink in 17th and 18th century England and America’s Colonial Era, and they are making a comeback, in a big way.

So, what exactly is a shrub? The bush growing in your yard? Yes, but that isn’t the shrub we are talking about. A shrub is a drink made with fruit, vinegar, and sugar. Shrubs are a delicious way to enjoy seasonal fruit and to quench your thirst. A shrub can be mixed with “spirits”, water or carbonated water.
