[Artemisia] A Question for the Vikings

[Tamar Black Sea]

Hi Aurora,

I am sorry that I can't tell you anything about rosehip soup in 
period....I can tell you that I grew up eating rosehip soup when I was a 
child. My family is Swedish and cold fruit soups were a beloved part of 
summertime. Rosehip soup was served a little later in fall when the 
rosehips had sweetened.

I have used a dried form bought in packets (kind of like dried onion 
soup)...but I have never been able to find it in the US...not even at Ikea.

Good luck with your search; it is totally worth it. Rosehip soup is like 
a little taste of heaven.

YIS,
Tamar
