Latin Name: Hippophae Rhamnoides L.
Common Names: Seaberry, Sandthorn
Origin Country: Serbia
Hippophae rhamnoides L., commonly known as sea buckthorn, is a deciduous shrub belonging to the Elaeagnaceae family. Native to Europe and Asia, this hardy plant is characterized by its silvery-green leaves and bright orange or yellow berries. More specifically, our sea buckthorn berries are osmotic, contain concentrated apple juice and are sugar and preservative-free. Osmosis is the process of dehydrating natural fruits, through which heat treatment is avoided and their original structure is not broken down, keeping the valuable components of the fruit intact. Sea buckthorn is a super fruit that is also used for jellies, juices, purees and sauces. They are eaten raw as a snack or you can combine them with muesli or yogurt.
Osmosis-dried Sea Buckthorn has a flavour that lies somewhere between a tart lemon and a sweet apricot, refreshing the taste buds in all directions. Sea Buckthorn has an apple-like aroma similar to cider.
As a Snack
– Eat 1-2 teaspoons daily as a sweet-tart snack for a natural energy and immunity boost.
– Add a spoonful to smoothies, oatmeal, or yogurt for extra tangy flavour and nutrients.
Buckthorn Berries Tea
To make a nourishing sea buckthorn berry tea, simply steep 1-2 teaspoons of osmotic sea buckthorn berries in 1 cup of hot water (about 80–90°C / 176–194°F) for 5–7 minutes to preserve their valuable nutrients. The berries will infuse the water with a vibrant orange hue and a tangy, tropical flavour that is both tart and slightly sweet. For added benefits and taste, you can enhance your tea with honey, fresh ginger, a cinnamon stick, or mint leaves. If you prefer a smoother texture, strain the berries before drinking.
