Years ago when I was in Ireland, I enjoyed many a pint of Guinness with Black Currant added to it.
I would like to experiment with currants in a stout recipe, but I can't find any online. The recipes I've seen are for fruit beers, or wheats or lighter ales.
If I were to add black currant to a stout recipe, what form would I use? I have some black currant "nectar," and you can buy dried currants at the grocery store. The stuff they use in Ireland is, I believe, Ribena Blackcurrant Syrup, but I don't know if it's available in the States.
Any ideas? Thanks.
