During Colonial times, shrubs were a very popular means of preserving fresh produce, usually berries, using vinegar or sometimes a spirit such as rum. Vinegar-based shrubs can provide a delicious and refreshing nonalcoholic drink option too.
The American version of the shrub has its origin in 17th century England where vinegar was used as an alternative to citrus juices in the preservation of berries and other fruits for the off-season. Fruit preserves made in this fashion were themselves known as shrubs and the practice carried over to Colonial America. By the 19th century ( post Civil War and during) typical American recipes for shrubs and vinegars poured over fruit and left to infuse anywhere from overnight up to several days, where popular. The fruit would be strained out and the remaining liquid would be mixed with a sweetener such as sugar or honey and then reduced to make a syrup.

About OFF GRID with DOUG and STACY:
We moved to our 11 acres in 2011 from a large city in the Midwest with zero carpentry and farming skills. We live with no solar / wind power / public water or well. We share our adventure to a sustainable life, growing our own food from vegetables to meat. We post videos DAILY and they range from HOW TO to EVERYDAY LIFE and NUTRITION on the off grid homestead. We were city folks just like you probably and wanted to enjoy life and have more control over our food. We share food recipes as well as natural remedies.
I know this is an old video, but I wanted to share what I discovered about how to make a "Shrub Soda" to replace sodas. Hopefully, y'all may come across this. I love the fizzy drinks, but they are nothing but chemicals and HFCS. I saw the recipe for making Shrub and I always have Water Kefir on hand so I combined my Strawberry Shrub with my Water Kefir to make a delicious strawberry soda! It quenches my thirst and craving for fizzy sodas and the fizz is all natural. Even my sister, who hated vinegary drinks loved this drink and it helped her wean off of sodas. I put a third of my 16 oz. glass with the shrub and the rest with water kefir and stirred to mix it. Give it a try if you are like me and love fizzy drinks!
Ty! My teens love water keifer. Gonna try mixing these two!💗🥤🥤
Wow that sounds delicious yeah the apple cider vinegar is a little harsh on my throat for some reason thats why I ask Stacy if she could possibly do a video using the kefir water instead of vinegar Thats all I drink no more sodas I have my adult children making kefir water also and I give kefir grains away I have so many
@sherri Ristow hi, I’m just now trying to learn this stuff. First what is kefir water and if it’s a seed could you maybe send me some. I’ve got to get off of pop and would like to try and grow some on my place in Oklahoma.
@@michellebaker4536 Hi Michelle kefir water is made with these gel like grains there you use mason jars quart size fill will filtered water add 1/4 raw cane sugar and a pinch of salt stir use a rubber spatula
Add 1/4 kefir grains to water sugar mixture.
Then cover jar with cloth and put jar lid ring over it to secure it leave on counter for 3 days
Then strain liquid into a mesh strainer and pour kefir water into a flip top bottle and you can flavor with whatever flavor you like puree blackberries and put some puree into kefir water in bottle then latch close let sit on counter for 2 days it builds up a carbonation
Once ready open in sink so it doesn't spray you
FYI buy your bottles on Amazon not from target or Walmart those ones will explode and glass and liquid go everywhere in the kitchen its a mess.
You can buy kefir grains off Amazon also
The grains you just strained you use to start the new fermenting so follow the steps I gave you these grains will multiply and then you can make more jars of kefir water
Where do you live I would have to see how or if I can send you some if you don't live here in California its best just to order them from Amazon I hope this helps explain everything to what kefir water is and how it is made no seeds
@@sherriristow3454 Thank you. I live in Oklahoma, I’ll have to check it all out . But I appreciate your instructions and will give it a try.
One part fruit
One part raw honey
One part Apple cider vinegar
Smash up fruit to get juice out
Add remaining ingredients
Put on lid and shake.
Shake everyday for 3-4 days
(May keep in fridge)
Strain it out and put juice in jar
When you go to drink it add a couple tablespoons of juice and the rest with sparkling water.
May also add ginger, cinnamon etc..
Great summary...thanks!
I wonder what banana would do...
How would you use orange 🍊 s ?
@@robincoley2376 Try it, find out.
@@robincoley2376 I'd cut them up and maybe even take the rind off and smash
Bringing back the old ways!! I LOVE IT!! Everything that your body needs to be healthy is here on Mother Earth, not BIG PHARM! Thank you for these videos!
First of all, your outdoor kitchen looks amazing! Secondly, when I grow up, I want to be just like Stacy! Oh, wait...I'm already 41 years old. Most importantly, I am so excited to give this a try! You guys are so inspiring...thank you so much!~ Sarah
I just turned 48 (if anyone asks I'm 29 though), and I still want to be just like Stacy when I grow up!
If someone asks how old you are you can tell them 29.95 plus shipping and handling. Lol
hahaha i have to remember that
That's what I was going to ask, is this the summer kitchen? It's really nice.
I love the cabinets.my Aunt had white ones
I have never heard of a shrub drink before. It sounds really good. I love how it is only 3 ingredients but you can do so many variations or flavors. I also love that it has many health benefits
My Grandmother use to make lemon Strawberry, and Blackberry rhubarb shrub, as a kid I loved this stuff
Stacy, do you actually realize the way Doug studies you when your teaching us..He looks at you with such adoration. So awesome :) I love it.
I love to watch the way Stacy puts together her recipes. She makes it look so easy. I’m slowly trying every one of them. But, this shrub recipe is going to jump to the top of the list.
Perfect timing to see this as I want to have an alternative drink to wine and soda for me and juice for my husband. I made this with blueberries, and like another person, don't have chickens (and am waaay frugal) -- so I blended it all in the Vitamix (no straining of fruit) and THIS STUFF IS AMAZING!!!! Sold completely on it. Making a peach one this afternoon with some freshly harvested peaches!! Thanks Stacy!
Add sparkling homemade water kefir and WOW!
I used frozen black cherries then I used a blender before straining, I saved the fruit for ice cream, I love this drink and will now try other fruit
@@jamessager2918 great idea on the frozen fruit
Did you add sparkling water or mineral water? Curious.
Peachy sounds good 👍
What was once old... is new again! 👍🏻 this is my new favorite UA-cam channel! Started a paleo diet 30 days ago and I am now off all of my medication for diabetes and high blood pressure! Amazing!!!! I make all my own food now and by only raw food! Thanks again!
Lime, cranberry, and ginger! This is what I'm making my father for Christmas 🎄⛄ ❤️
Momma used to make us a drink what we called a "fizzy". It was just apple cider vinegar,water, sugar, and a 1/2tsp of baking soda. We loved it. This would even be better.
Ur mom was cool
My dad made something similar. We used to love it.
My first batch of blackberry scrub was such a success that I have strawberry and wild Alaskan raspberries going now. Thanks for all the work you do to bring us these great videos.
This is great!! I just finished off a bottle of elderberry cough syrup ( ingedients: eldeberries, acv, honey) tonight. Had a little left in the bottle and thought " hey, why not add this to some mineral water ". It was wonderful! I'll definitely be making a batch!!
Saw this video a while back and had this on my radar to make. Just made last week and tried it today! Used Aronia berries, honey and Braggs ACV. I was a little hesitant but oh my, this stuff is amazing. Now I have berries out to make several more! Thanks guys for sharing and encouraging everyone to be more healthy!! Awesome!!
Hi, from Minnesota.
I just watched/listen to this video for the forth time, Just wanted to share how I tweaked the shrub "Lol....." I use half the honey and good inch of ginger and put it in my juicer/blender so I don't Have to throw the berries. 😁
First time I did and felt bad lol...
I don't have chickens or pigs lol..
Thanks for sharing your love and wisdom/education. Love all your videos.
Oh and I too Just take shots of it
Straight up love it
Great idea. I was wondering what I could do with the pulp too, don't want to throw it out. I'd halve the honey too since it probably doesn't need to be so sweet.
@@KatarinaS. great for the compost or garden
Made my shrubs with our own berries we grow and is just wonderful, love love love this.
Thank you again STACy and Doug
I haven't tried it before but I think a peach one would be super tasty! Thanks for showing the steps on how to make this guys!
Cream soda is made with baking soda, which you could use instead of sparkling water.
I just want to say "THANK You", I just made my first shrub (strawberry), and it is delicious! I think I could drink it, in small amounts, all by itself!! I had never even heard of these drinks before!!
I just strained out my blueberry vinegar the other day and I think that would be good for making this! Thanks Doug and Stacy!
I have been making kombucha for about 3 months now and love it! As I was running low on the Booch and waiting on my brew, I decided to give this a try... AMAZING! I used 100% pomegranate juice, Braggs and honey. Then a lemon sparkling water. I'm hooked!
I'm baffled.... how can anyone give a thumbs down to this video? Very sad. I am looking forward to trying this. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for bringing these healthy ways and recipes from the past back to life!
Hello Doug and Stacey, love love love your program and watch all the time, thx.! So the shrub , well, I live in Japan and it's a traditional drink here too. People use various vinegars, apple cider or rice depending on your taste, the most common sweetener to use is rock sugar (not the healthiest option, I know! I mix honey and sugar), and fruits used are your choice of seasonal fruit. I love using purple grapes! As you said , it's just left on the counter for as long as it takes to drink it all. Mine has now been sitting out for about a year and a half and it just keeps getting better (I made a huge jar). I like to drink mine with regular water because it has a lot of bite on it's own without adding extra fizz. Thx you guys! ;)
I have watched this video many times, and I was surprised to find it different! Must have been an edit lol!
Finally made this!!! I'm so excited! Thank you so much you both for being so awesome :)
Been having some weird gut issues after having to be on pain meds...its repair time and I need to get my ferments in :)
I always say to myself "this is so simple, why haven't I done it yet". Well I made this today with some blueberries and it turned out so yummy. I added molasses and honey to give it a tangy/ Carmel flavor. I can't wait to try it when it sits out for a few days!!
So 3 years later, you still drinking it ..?
Doug and Stacey are comedy ...two different videos in one who else does that ...thanks for making it fun to watch too
DOUG YOU KILL ME HOW MUCH YOU LOVE STACY GREAT COUPLE SO BLESSED BY YOU BOTH!!
Raenetta Dulin Doug and Stacy are not married. Dpig works for Stacy. Correct me if I am wrong.
I think they're faithfully married. At the very least, they are people of faith, and they sleep in a full-size bed.😂😂(see cabin tour).
Thank,you!
I am planning to make one (experimental) without apple vinegar.
First, I cover the strawberries with sugar, in a jar and let them rest for 2 days, well covered.
At the same time, I make a jar of grated ginger water kefir...
That is water, 3 spoonfuls of sugar, half a lemon and 3 spoonfuls of kefir grains. Also let them rest covered for 2 days.
For the second fermentation, I mix both strained liquids.
And let rest for at least 2 more days.
This, if all goes as expected, I am going to call the primitive strawberry shrub.
And of course, I'll comment.
I don't see an update...so, how'd it go?
I'm so late haha But your alternative with the kefir grains sounds great! I don't like the taste of acv, kefir has a lot of good probiotics in it as well! So still getting something good for the gut & tastes yummy!
Sorry for making you wait so long for my comments... It was not as tasty as expected... Normally, I prefer to do the kefir just with oranges, as they preserve much more taste than the strawberries...
Thank you, Doug and Stacy ! I'm going to make some of these ! 🙂
Love you both ! ❤️
I never heard about a shrub until I learned it from the 2 of you. I even bought a book about shrubs. Thank you so much. Now we have several kinds in our cabinet.
about the molasses - I grew up with molasses in my milk!! It IS an acquired taste! but no one ever stole my thermos drink! LOL Thank you! We were looking for a soda alternative that was more natural/historical and was easy to make instead of the machines that require you to always be buying their CO2 canisters. THANK YOU!! cheers!!
Just made my first batch of 2 blueberry & 2 strawberry...I'm so excited to try! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for this video! I made the blueberry shrub and it is wonderful! No need for pop ever!
Just ran across this drink recipe. We grow a variety of fruits & berries. This sounds like another way to use them. Thanks so much for your variety of recipes from the homestead. Oh yes, I’m going to look into that solar oven too!
Thank you so much for sharing we can't wait to try this new drink always trying to find something healthy for my kiddos and also your tomatoes in the background are lovely-looking you two are the best thanks for sharing all your knowledge
Good stuff! Sometimes I add black beans to my fermented fruit and bake it with some cinnamon. It's amazing! Also, Balsamic vinegar is different...my blood type likes it better. And I just want to say how much I love your outdoor kitchen! It's bright and cheerful!
Might try cherry. I have made the lemon version and we enjoy that very much. Sweeten with organic Stevia if you want a calorie reduced version. I serve it with a bit of rum as a cocktail at parties. Anoher delight is to have some fresh mint leaves in a bowl and let them add their own mint to their drink. Great video Stacy and Doug.
Hi Doug and Stacy.. Stacy I enjoy your cooking videos, I am going to make some blueberry shrub today!! I am so glad your videos are still available!! Thanks for sharing!
Was considering how I get so little apple cider vinegar in my family's diet. This is brilliant!❤
Am trying to get off drinking pop. This looks so good for a person to drink, that I am going to make this. Hopefully, this shrub will replace the pop permanently. As a couple, there is so much wisdom, fun, video's and teaching. Keep up the great work, for we are better for it.
Another recipe I plan to try. Thanks again and keep up. The recipes😊
Shrubs are a great thing to make!!! Another great recipe and information!
I love the Haymakers punch, I take it every day to work. Also making the kombucha and take that every day to work as well. They are awesome drinks. I can't wait to try this one.
Can't wait to try it. My son and his wife are addicted to pop, I hope they try this to get off the pop. Take care, love you from Nova Scotia
Just mixed up blueberry apple. I’m on chemo and don’t want the diet chemicals or the sugar. I can’t wait to try more flavors! Hubby and I are not homesteaders, but we try to live natural. Cancer sucks but my positive attitude, and your UA-cam videos have just inspired me more to dive into things! Orange peel cleaner will be ready this week!
I caught myself drooling as I watched your mixing up the concoction. Yum!
Since watching your shows I have been making kefir milk & water (I use 3.25%) milk, Kombucha & now Jun... now another drink. Thank you so much I have been feeling much better.
+roxieamos nice!
All I can say is another awesome, helpful and healthy video! Thanks guys!!
well i'm going to have to give this a try thanks for sharing Happy gardening Tracy
I am agreeing w/Living Traditions, the outdoor kitchen turned out so well that beautiful Stacy has her ring to match the cabinets. Great job Doug.
I made strawberry mmmm. Love the videos. Thanks for making them, I've learned so much
I was wondering about strawberries, I am making this this weekend using them and when in season I plan to make a lot of it.. I live by a fresh strawberry farm..
This is great! I gave up soda but every once in a while I want something carbonated so I will get a sparkling water. Can't wait to try this☺ ❤thanks!
Hi Doug and Stacy, Thank you for a great video. I can't wait to try the shrub. The reason for the ginger is because it wants to ferment everything it touches lol. ie it helps with the fermenting process.
looks delicious and the health benefits of drinking vinegar and endless.
Great idea…. I'm trying! Questions - 1) Does this drink REQUIRE a sugar, -for safety or fermentation, or could I use stevia to sweeten? 2) If using stevia, would I need to place mixture in frig while waiting the three days? 3) When using a natural sweetener, is it used up in the process of the three days? 4) I DO have electricity, so is there any reason I could not place my fruit into my vita mix to make my fruit juice/berry mix for this drink instead of mashing the fruit? Thanks, guys!
Gigi CS, I am very interested to know the answer to your question as well. Have you gotten a response to your question from Doug and Stacey?
Yes, you need sugar for fermentation. Stevia is a great sweetener alternative for other things (kefir or tea, for example) but doesn't provide whatever is necessary to ferment.
Like making vinegar, wine, kombucha, etc. the sugar content goes down with time. After 3 days there will still be sugar in it. If you go longer you may risk mold, or it turning to vinegar.
Haymakers Punch is now a staple in my house. There's always a pitcher of it in the fridge!
Rick Mitchell my wife made some for us, now i make my own just to take to work and have let others know about it also
Definitely going to give this a try. Blueberry and lemon goes together very well. That will probably be my first.
I love your videos so well done and very informative thank you Doug and Stacy ❤
made this and LOVE it. I gave some to a friend and she loves it too! thanks for sharing!
Hey Doug&Stacy, I just picked up blackberries and raspberries from the store Monday need to go back for the sparkling water but this sounds good to me.Healthy and tasty can't go wrong with that no matter how you look at it huh.Thanks for sharing.
I've been making this now since I watched this video the first time about three and a half months, and I want to thank you because it's wonderful and everybody that tastes it loves it
Great video and great recipes. Thank you guys
This was so simple...even I can do it. Thank you.
I made it. I made it again. Then I did a video about it and linked to you two awesomes. We love our Shrub over here!
Just discovered your channel and in the last week tried the shrub with blackberries, and now raspberries. OMG! So good! I can’t stop drinking it! Thank you so much!
I have made the blackberry shrub several times and my family loves it!
We have some yummy grapes that are ready for picking. I think we'll try grape shrub! Our son get Bragg's ACV drinks all the time. He should love this.
Ooooh...my peaches are coming on. I know what I am going to use...
love your video on shrub drinks, thanks for finding & sharing these great old time natural drinks, will try this week, :)
I made this with a gallon bag of black raspberries from last year I had in the freezer. I used sugar in place of honey and homemade apple cider vinegar. It turned out great. I had also, a couple of years ago, infused vodka with black raspberries. I made a cocktail using a couple T. of black raspberry shrub, a shot of black raspberry vodka and some sparkling water. It was a great mixed drink. Thank you for your informational videos. I am blessed by what I learn from you
What's with people not liking the taste of molasses. I can still see Dad, in my mind's eye, wiping up a platter of molasses with homemade bread and butter, said it built his blood up. Just did search, Dad was right, BlackStrap Molasses, only need a spoonful "contains high concentrations of vitamins and minerals. It is rich in iron " We also made molasses raisin filled cookies and Dad liked the molasses/vinegar/ginger Switchel to quench the thirst
My grandfather on my father of the family
My dad would split hotdogs lengthwise, drizzle molasses on top, and broil them. Yummy
VERY interesting!, I'm going to give this a try, thank you v much. Another most informative video 👌🐢
I've got to try this for sure. We have alot of arthritis in our family. Thanks for sharing. Love your videos. And love y'all too.
Gonna try this with mint see your tomatoes are doing good in back ground...thanks for sharing...
I love you recipes but I LOVE the outdoor kitchen. I tried all the variations of the switchel. My favorite was the syrup and least favorite was with molasses. Honey is better in switchel with a cinnamon stick!
Awesome topic! Love your combinations. I recently made one with fresh peaches and used my kombucha vinegar. Turned out delicious.
This video just reminded me that I had made shrub 6(?)-7(?) years ago! I made it and then stuck it on the bottom shelf, way in the back, of my kitchen cabinet without ever trying it!! I don't even remember HOW I made the shrub! lol
I made a shrub of Mandarin oranges with maple syrup and apple cider vinegar. I love it. I also just started a turmeric and ginger, maple syrup and apple cider vinegar shrub.
Neat ! (Now I don't have to feel odd admitting I enjoy drinking the remains of the liquor left in jars of pickled beetroot diluted with remains of the syrup from canned fruit. Hubby can't understand why I want to keep what he'd rather discard (he's diabetic)!! Its counterintuitive but I find such naturally-acidic beverages combat symptoms of indigestion from acid reflux.
What a nice way to wake up, now I know what to do with all our berries in the spring, see you in October
So the wife juices every day. Just saved us from a bought of food poison. Thank God for activated charcoal. Her Beet juice recipe revived us. Think we might try this with some of the juices.
This looks delicious and very versatile. Definitely going to try my hand at this soon. Stacy- you are always inspiring me to try new recipes and healthy alternatives, I have a bucket list of items now thanks to you. Thank you both for sharing your videos with us all!
I think you could flavor/sweeten your tea with it. 😋
Great vid and recipe. One thing as a suggestion. Honey: if you use pasteurized (heated) honey you are losing your honey health benefits. Use ONLY raw honey. Doesn't have to have the wax on it but it can't be heated. Heat destroys the beneficial organisms the bees worked so hard to impart to raw honey and then you lose the benefits too. As a general rule (not always) when using sweeteners, only use the sweets that have some of the original organic bases the sweetener came from. Cane sugar with some molasses color (fiber + minerals), coconut flower sugar, green stevia (green-the whole plant), etc. Hope this helps.
I've no doubt that their honey is unpasteurised
That's interesting name for this drink it might have some origins in Arab culture. The word "Sure-rub" in Arabic means drink. Nice channel and videos we learn a lot from you and watch you a lot
Oh my goodness, I learn so much from you guys. and on another note, Stacy, I love how you use Dougs old clean t shirts to strain some of the things you strain.
My grandmother made a version of this each summer. We called it ‘raspberry vinegar ‘ but it was a sweet red syrup. The fruit, sugar and vinegar were simmered, then strained through cheesecloth
Looks so good. Can't get my hubby to drink the acv in water or hay makers punch (kids and I love both, act is the new lemonade at our house:) I will have to make this, not tell him it has acv in it, and see what he thinks:)
Now that's a recipe I am down to try!! I need to stop drinking soda's.
LOL, See three years ago I knew!!!! Awesome video guys
Yep except YOU DIDN'T FOLLOW THROUGH so now we know what 3 years looks like this way now let's see the next 3 😉
what a wonderful way to have something different for the grandkids to drink. Will definately have to make some for the next get together.
wow thank you! I cant do cold and get so tired of drinking just lemon water. what a great drink!
I have some fresh pomegranate juice. Could I skip the fruit mashing step and just mix it 1:1:1 (juice/sweetener/ACV) or is there something about the fruit pulp that is important to this process?
Yes, juice can be used.
shout out to grizz270, thats our buddy right there! :)
ours too =)
Oh goodness...thank you! I'd almost forgotten about those vinegar drinks; especially in the summer when it was so darn hot. I spent every summer with my great grandma and great uncles on their farm, and during the summer they always had that haymaker punch or something similar.
Don't know if anyone has told you but a company in UK still makes Shrub but it is used almost exclusively as a mixer served with Rum
Rum shrub is a classical Cornish drink. Shrub being used to hide the salt water flavour of the hidden barrels of smuggled rum. In the less touristy areas of Cornwall you can get a rum shrub in many pubs.
@@theoriginaldylangreene And in many traditional pubs in Plymouth
Have you ever used maple syrup? It's my go-to sweetener. [I heard you say you can use whatever you'd like, I'm just curious if you've tried it and enjoyed it?]
Thanks...
Another great video. Thank you for sharing...... :o)
I love all your healthy drink recipes! Thanks for teaching us!
i have started making shrubs and we really love them. Since my honey supplies is getting low right now i have used sugar and we love it with sparkling water. The first batch i made from wild saskatoons, the one i have going now is strawberries. Yum. Oh i also wanted to tell you. I have a gallon jug of home made honey vinegar on the go right now. Its suppose to have many health benefits as well....not just for gut health but also joint health. So we will see how it turns out in a few months. Thanks for the great videos
