Shepherdia Canadensis, aka Canada Buffaloberry

– a Berry with Possibilities

Treat your palate to an interesting experience with these sharp tasting berries.

Mashing Buffaloberries with Blackberries balance each other out beautifully and is the best berry to pair them with.  Use the mixture like jam for any meal or as a dessert. The compote can also be spread on a meat dish, like a glaze to give it a light woodsy flavour.

Buffaloberries can be whipped with a whisk, with a teaspoon of Maple Syrup which makes them froth. This wonderfully frothy juice can be spread over fruit or a pie, added to a smoothie or used as a sauce over vanilla or strawberry ice cream.  Enjoy!
