Ingredients

  • 2 cups soapberries (Canada buffaloberries)
  • 2 cups water
  • optional sweeteners may include fireweed, camas bulb (Camassia quamash) or sweet berries such as salal berries (Gaultheria shallon), or thimbleberries. Nowadays many people sweeten it with sugar.

Directions

  1. Crush berries to release the liquid/juice.
  2. Combine juice with an equal part of water.
  3. Add sweetener.
  4. Whip it with a whisk until foamy, similar in texture to whipped cream.

Notes

A branch of soapberries can be shaken over a metal or glass container until all of the ripe berries fall off. Oily or plastic containers will prevent frothing.
