Recently had the pleasure of visiting Tromsø. While we were there, our skiing instructor introduced us to a hot drink called Solbær. It was so good that we grabbed some Solbærsirup on our way out of the country. Trouble is, none of us thought to ask how much to dilute it, or if there was anything more to it.
There’s a 1+5 symbol on the bottle which seems to indicate 1 part syrup to 5 parts water, which is simple enough. Nonetheless, I thought I’d ask how cultured Redditors prefer it 🙂
yep, as simple as that. Use cold or hot water
It’s basically just concentrated syrup from Blackcurrants. The ratio mentioned on the bottle should be good. adjust it to your preference. If it’s too strong, add more water and vice versa
Thats it, you just mix it with water. Hot or cold, whatever you prefer. 5 part water, 1 part Sirup, or Saft as we call it. When it comes to how much you should add, just mix and taste. If it’s too weak you just add a litte more sirup.
One part syrup to five parts cod liver oil.
If you decide to use hot water, get it from a kettle or water heated in a pan. Not from the faucet.
With water
You chug it
Oatmeal and racins in a pot, simmer for 20 minutes. Fill it while hot in a thermo can. On your way to your favourite location for skiing, buy some kvikk lunsj (not the fake kitkat) and oranges.
Add hot water!
You add water (hot or cold) then enjoy it, take a small part of the sirup and add water
Just like any other squash, with a bit less water….
add vodka and water?
I prefer 1:7 or 1:8 with water. I like it thin. Works great with Farris/Bris/carbonate water. I just make it stronger. Like 1:3 or 1:4. For some unknown reason
Mix it like a screwdriver. The syrup is the vodka and the water is the juice.
When I have a sore throat I mix this with really hot water. Whether it actually helps or not I don’t know, but it helps lol
Mix some seawater, ad teaspoon of fresh snow, heat to barely boiling and double the amont of fluid with evergreen based gin, fonal touch up with lemon and/ or mint leaves depending on preference.
Raw
Someone had an accident💀
Use it in your pink gin sour instead of simple syrup.
Drink it straight from the bottle. Refreshing and authentically norwegian. 🇳🇴
If your thinking of hot solbær, its probably solbærtoddy. Wich comes in little pakcages in a powder substance
