Nutritional values
If you have lots of currants on the bushes and are still looking for the right way to use them, you can try this delicious currant wine! But watch out: Wine is an absolute luxury food and should therefore be consumed only rarely and in small quantities.
Redcurrants are getting too boring for you? Try the red currant wine also with white or black currants.
