I planted a white currant bush last year and this year it gave me a couple of handfuls. They have a fresh taste like a green grape but a bit more tart. I’m in the process of drying them now so I can use them to make some currant scones

Noo you reminded me how much bushes of red currant I have to pick and process.
Easiest thing is to put it in strong alcohol and make liqueur.
I was thinking make wine out of them. But you need much more than what OP has.
Do you have a recipe to share for red/black/white currant liqueur?
Set it and wait is best kind - put it in jar (full), pour strong alcohol over it (55% or more), leave it for 5-6 months. Strain, add sugar (not needed) and drink. Nothing special I tried something with wine but it wasn’t good.
Haha yeah, they’re a pain. Even this small amount was extremely tedious to get off the stems.
