Ingredients
- 2 cups of rosehips
- 1 cup of sugar
- ½ cup of cider vinegar
- 1 cup of water
- 6 juniper berries (whole)
- 6 cloves (whole)
- a pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons of yellow mustard seeds (whole)

Instructions
- Cut the rosehips in half lengthways. Then de-seed them. Rinse and strain the rosehips.
- Place the sugar into a large bowl. Then add the water, vinegar and juniper berries, cloves, mustard seeds, salt and bay leaves. Bring to a boil and simmer for 30 minutes. Skim off any froth.
