Raspberry and sea buckthorn preserves are used as cold remedies in Moldova. We also kept this kind of cold remedy in our house, thanks to our neighbors who had a sea buckthorn plant in their yard; they were kind enough to share the berries with us. I prefer to use sea buckthorn in my hot beverages as a preventive measure for winter bugs. Inspired by some Canadian sea buckthorn dishes, I may experiment and use it in marmalade, jelly and sauces.
