Children are especially fond of fragrant raspberries, and adults also enjoy raspberry jam with pleasure. One of the ways to harvest summer berries is to roll raspberry compote for the winter. Since the compote is subjected to less long-term heat treatment, this method allows you to preserve a maximum of vitamins. After all, raspberries are not only tasty, but also very healthy. It replenishes vitamin C reserves and is especially good for colds and flu as it relieves general symptoms, lowers body temperature and improves well-being.
Recipes for raspberry compotes for the winter are within the power of even inexperienced housewives. The process of preparing a drink is quite simple and does not take much time.
Before putting the berries in jars, they must be cleaned of the tails and washed. To do this, carefully put the raspberries in a sieve and put them in a bowl of water a couple of times, and then let the excess liquid drain.
To get rid of the raspberry bug, dip the berries in salted water for 10 minutes before washing, and then rinse well.
You can quickly prepare raspberry compote for the winter without sterilization. To do this, rinse raspberries in the amount of 600 g and spread them in equal parts into two cans (3 l each).
Pour 1 teaspoon of citric acid into each bottle.
Next, make a syrup for pouring:
Fill the jars with syrup and close the raspberry compote for the winter.
To prepare three cans of a drink with a volume of 2 liters, 600 g will be required (at the rate of 200 g per can). It can be made immediately in large containers and divided equally into two three-liter bottles.
Banks should be sterilized beforehand.
Arrange clean berries in containers, pour boiling water (about 6 liters) and leave for 5 minutes. Next, carefully pour the liquid into a large saucepan, leaving a little in the raspberries - this way it will not lose shape.
Add 0.6 kg of granulated sugar to the water. To make the compote less sweet, you can put 100 g less. While stirring, let the sugar completely dissolve.
Pour the boiling syrup over the berries and roll up.
This drink will take a little more time and will be very concentrated. However, this is its "pluses" - by opening one liter jar of concentrate in winter, you can make at least 3 liters of delicious compote from it. This method of canning is especially relevant for city dwellers who do not have their own basement.
So, put 3 kg of picked and washed berries in a bowl in layers, sprinkling with powdered sugar. In total, you will need about 800 g of powder. Leave the sprinkled raspberries overnight to extract juice.
Powdered sugar can be made by yourself by grinding sugar in a blender with special attachments.
In the morning, carefully select the berries with a slotted spoon, arrange them equally in the jars and pour the raspberry syrup remaining in the bowl.
Put jars with the preparation of raspberry compote for the winter in a large basin, having previously laid an old towel on the bottom. Sterilize for no more than 10 minutes, roll up and wrap.
To diversify the taste, when canning the drink, you can add other berries and fruits to it. So, in the compote of apples and apples, fruits with sourness will perfectly complement the taste and give it individuality, and ripe berries will create a beautiful shade.
The peculiarity of this drink is that it is prepared in a saucepan and then rolled up. To prevent the lid from swelling during storage, add lemon.
A very original drink is obtained with the addition of red dry wine (100 g per total amount of liquid). However, in the case of its use by children, it is better to miss this moment.
Step by step preparation of 3 liters of compote:
A drink made from two types of berries - raspberries and currants - is very rich in color and special in taste.
To make the compote sweeter, use red currants. For a beautiful color, take black berries.
In order to roll up 3 liters of raspberry compote and:
When using red currants, the amount of sugar should be increased to 200 g, otherwise the drink will slightly sour.
Quite an unusual combination of traditional compote berries and exotic fruit will allow you to get a delicious refreshing drink with citrus notes.
For 4 liters of raspberry and orange compote for the winter you will need:
Rinse raspberries and dry slightly.
Pour over the orange with boiling water and divide into 4 parts, each cut at random.
Sterilize the jars and put the raspberries and orange in them.
Pour boiling water over the ingredients and cover with lids on top. Wait until the jars have cooled down so that you can take them with your bare hands.
When the glass has cooled, drain the present liquid into a saucepan and prepare a syrup on its basis with the addition of sugar.
Pour in hot syrup and roll up.
Raspberry compote for the winter will not only quench your thirst, but also help fight vitamin deficiency. When preparing, you can connect your imagination and combine raspberries not only with currants, apples and oranges, but also with other fruits. This will not spoil the taste of the drink, but just the opposite - it will give it individuality. The main thing is to preserve with a margin, because delicious compotes tend to end quickly. Bon Appetit!

Pour water into a saucepan, set it to boil. We sterilize the jars, so the compote will definitely not deteriorate, and you will also reduce the likelihood that the jar will burst when it is filled with boiling water for the first time dozens of times. While the water is boiling, we sort out the berries from the leaves, stalks, and also make sure that the berries are not tainted, since the raspberries retain their freshness for a very short time. Therefore, if you have already collected the berries on the site, then try to arrange them in a day, if it does not work out, then in the sorted state, store the raspberries exclusively in the refrigerator. We fill sterilized jars with raspberries.
Fill the berries with boiling water. Then we cover with metal lids, with which we will roll up the compote later, and set to stand for 10 minutes. This will steam the berry. If you think I've forgotten about sugar, then don't worry, it's not his turn yet.
Well, now in a saucepan with a volume of at least 3.5 liters (since the cans into which we roll the compote are three-liter), pour a glass of sugar.
Pour water from jars with berries into a saucepan with sugar. To do this, put a sieve on the pan and pour water through it.
The berries remain in the sieve, and I put them back into the jar with a slotted spoon. But the water from the jar ends up with sugar in a saucepan, which we put on the fire to boil.
Only steamed berries remain in the jar. And even if the raspberries are no longer as beautiful as they were, the compote from it is very tasty.
Pour the berries again with sweet water, tighten with a metal lid. We turn the cans with compote carefully, check if the lid is leaking, and in the upside down state we leave it wrapped in a blanket until it cools completely. It's so easy and simple to make raspberry compote for the winter.
