Za’aroor (hawthorn berries)

Sun-dried berries hand-foraged from ancient hawthorn trees in St. Catherine's mountains, cherished in Bedouin tradition for their tart, earthy flavor.

Why We Like It:
- Wild & Untamed – Grows naturally in Sinai’s rugged wadis without cultivation
- Bedouin Heritage – Used for generations in teas and natural preparations
- Complex Flavor – Balanced tartness with subtle apple-like notes
- Slow Harvest – Hand-picked at peak ripeness to preserve nutrients

How to Use:

- Herbal Tea: Simmer 1 tbsp berries in water for 10 mins (add honey to taste)
- Culinary: Steep in syrups for desserts or infuse vinegars
- Traditional: Prepare as a chilled summer drink with mint
- Preserves: Make jams or fruit leathers
