1. Mulberry Yogurt
Ingredients:
- 100g mulberries
- 400g unsweetened yogurt
- 80g sugar
- 12g gelatin (thickening and binding powder)
- 50g coconut milk
Instructions:
- Step 1: Make mulberry syrup:
- Wash the mulberries thoroughly and drain them. Prepare a pan and add the mulberries and sugar. Stir them with a spoon until the sugar coats the mulberries and starts to dissolve.

- Step 2: Prepare mulberry yogurt:
- Add the yogurt into the bowl of mulberry syrup and stir until well combined. Then, add coconut milk and mix everything together until smooth.
- Heat the mixture on the stove for an additional 5 minutes. Once done, remove from heat, let it cool, and place it in glasses. Refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.
- Result:
- Your mulberry yogurt is now ready! It's quick and easy, right? The yogurt has a beautiful natural color and looks very tempting. When you taste it, you'll immediately feel the perfect balance of sweet and sour with a delightful mulberry aroma. Once you take a bite, you'll want more!


2. Mulberry Wine
Ingredients:
- 0.5kg of brown sugar.
- 1 kg of fresh mulberries.
- 1 liter of white wine.
- A large glass jar.
Instructions:
- Step 1: Gently wash the mulberries under running water. Avoid vigorous washing, as it may crush the berries, making them unsuitable for soaking. Wash 2 to 3 times to remove all dirt and then drain in a colander. Wear gloves during washing to prevent the fruit's color from staining your hands, as it’s very difficult to clean off.
- Step 2: Boil some water with a pinch of salt and stir until dissolved. Let it cool a bit before placing the mulberries into the salted water for about 2-3 minutes. Drain the mulberries to remove excess water. This step is crucial as it helps the berries not develop a film during soaking.
- Step 3: Once the mulberries are drained, place them into a glass jar, alternating layers of mulberries and sugar until the ingredients are used up. Then pour in the white wine to fill the jar.
- Step 4: Seal the jar tightly and let it ferment for about a month. Every two weeks, press the mulberries down to ensure they are fully immersed in the liquid.
- Step 5: After a month, your mulberry wine is ready to enjoy. Simply strain the liquid, discarding the solid mulberries. You can add ice for a refreshing drink, perfect for the summer.

4. Mulberry Syrup
Ingredients:
- 2 kg of ripe mulberries
- 1 – 1.2 kg of granulated sugar
- 1 large sieve
- 3 1-liter bottles
- Glass jars with lids
Directions:
- Start by sorting through the mulberries, removing any that are bruised, spoiled, or have been eaten by pests. Then, place the mulberries in a colander and rinse them gently under running water to remove any dirt. Let them drain.
- Sanitize the glass jars by rinsing them with hot water, then wiping them dry with a clean cloth.
- Once the mulberries are dry, place them into the jars. Alternate layers of mulberries and sugar, making sure the topmost layer is sugar to prevent the mulberries from molding. Close the jars tightly and gently tap them to mix the sugar with the mulberries.
- Leave the jars in a cool, dry place for 1-2 days. When the sugar has dissolved, gently press the mulberries to release their juice. Then, transfer the mulberries and syrup mixture into a large pot and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Once it boils, reduce the heat and simmer for another 15-20 minutes before turning off the heat and letting it cool.
- Once the syrup cools, strain it through a sieve to separate the syrup from the mulberry pulp. Pour the strained syrup into the prepared bottles for storage and future use.
