MULBERY Juice-
It is called ‘Fountain of youth’ due to its anti-aging effects.
These fruits
are white, red, purple or black depending on the type of tree. They are
sweet and slightly tart, though the flavour can vary. White mulberry, for
example, has a sweeter taste and is less tart than black or red mulberry fruits.
Unfortunately,
mulberries don’t travel well, so you’re unlikely to find them fresh at the
grocery store. However, you may still be able to pick up a batch at your local
farmer’s market, and dried forms of mulberries are widely available both online
and at many stores.
Keep in
mind that mulberries don’t last long after they’re picked, so be sure to eat up
quickly once they’re picked or freeze them to help extend their shelf life by
several months.
The
fruits of the mulberry plant can be baked into desserts or added to yogurts and
smoothies to enhance the flavour and kick up the nutrient profile.
Mulberry
trees were an essential part of the silk industry, as mulberry tree leaves are

Mulberries are
generally sweet with a tart flavour that works well in many different desserts
and dishes.
