White currant

White currant (Ribes rubrum var. albescens) is a light-colored variety of red currant that offers a milder and sweeter alternative to tart berries. Its pale yellowish berries, subtle flavor, and striking appearance make it a valued ornamental and edible berry.

Although white currant is not as well-known as black or red currants, it is perfect for delicate taste buds, especially for children and those who avoid sour berries.

Even though white currants are light, they still contain several beneficial nutrients – just slightly fewer antioxidants than dark currants.

- Contains:
Vitamin C
Fiber
Potassium and small amounts of polyphenols

- Especially suitable for:
People who avoid acidic berries
Children as a first berry
Can be combined with other berries to mellow the flavor
