Cranberries are commonly known as cranberries.

One of the cranberry's aliases is cranberry, so called because of its small and bright red fruit. Cranberries have a long history of cultivation on the North American continent, where they were first consumed by the Native Indian Ministry. They made cranberries into jams, dried fruit and other foods; also used cranberry juice to smear wounds in order to heal; as a dye dye fabric.

In China, we have the largest cranberry base in Asia: the Red Sea Cranberry Base, located in Fuyuan City, Heilongjiang Province. The Chinese cranberry base began to introduce North American cranberries and conduct research in 2010, and Red Sea Plant officially began large-scale cultivation of cranberries in Fuyuan City, Heilongjiang Province in 2015.

Selecting cranberries

1, look at the appearance

The appearance of high-quality cranberries should present a bright red or crimson color, and the skin is smooth, full, no breakage or shrinkage. If the cranberries appear visibly sunken or too dull in color, they are likely not fresh and are not recommended for purchase.

2, pay attention to the taste

Quality cranberries should be soft, and sweet and sour moderate, with a strong fruit flavor. If the texture is too hard or too soft, or the flavor is too bland, then it may be a poor quality cranberry.

3, look at the origin

Good quality cranberries are usually produced in the northern hemisphere of the cold zone, because these areas of the climate conditions suitable for the growth of cranberries. If the origin is far away from us, it is likely to be transported over long distances, and the quality may be affected to some extent. Therefore, when buying cranberries, it is best to choose the origin closer to us.
