Superficially damaged fruit are given a second chance with Mixers and Elixirs. Heidi Kuhn produces small batch shrubs made in Vancouver harvesting local produce.
A shrub is also known as a drinking vinegar, a sweet and tart fruit based concentrate made with organic apple cider vinegar that can be enjoyed with soda water or used as a creative mix for cocktails
Kuhn works directly with the farmers, buying their second grade produce at a reduced cost. To date, she's created shrubs sourced from nectarines, quinces, and concord grapes.
