Blackthorn Berry Powder (Prunus spinosa) is a finely milled, tart-sweet berry powder made from carefully dried blackthorn (sloe) fruit. Richly coloured and pleasantly astringent, it's a favourite for flavouring cordials and spirit infusions, and adds a bold, hedgerow note to teas and pantry recipes.
♡ Why we love it: The deep, ruby-purple hue and bright, tangy flavour make elegant cordials and sloe-style infusions, while the fine powder blends smoothly into syrups, jams and warming herbal teas without gritty texture.
Sizes: 200g or 1kg.
