Mountain Ash (Berries)
Mountain Ash (Sorbus aucuparia), also known as rowan, is a deciduous tree in the Rosaceae family, native to Europe and parts of western Asia. It is commonly found in woodlands, mountains, and hedgerows, and has long been admired for its clusters of bright orange-red berries and feather-like compound leaves.
Mountain ash berries are used to support digestion, relieve sore throats, reduce inflammation, and act as a gentle laxative. Rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, the berries make great additions to teas, syrups, jams, or fermented drinks. The berries must be cooked or dried before consumption, as raw berries contain parasorbic acid, which is neutralized by heat.
Mountain ash berry tea has a tart, slightly bitter flavor with fruity and bitter notes. We enjoy it in moderation as a warming, wintertime beverage. To soften its sharpness, it pairs well with sweeter or calming herbs like rose hips, elderflower, or cinnamon. Blending it with licorice root or honeybush can also enhance its flavor and balance its natural bitterness.
