Cutesaurus went to a Pick-Your-Own fruit farm (it's the first time any of us had visited one and it was excellent...).

Here's Cutesaurus picking lots of blackcurrants.

At Thurloxton Farm, in Somerset, England.

i heard that the US doesn't really have blackcurrants because they were banned whereas they're very popular in the UK, so i'm curious

The latest strange tea concoction idea for a redneck wine batch.

I was going to just use a different fruity flavored black tea blend, because they really do seem to love that shit here. But, then I remembered that the rest of this bottle of syrupy blackcurrant juice drink concentrate (which I actually picked up mostly for another brewing experiment) was still in the fridge.

Out of what we have on hand, I thought this rosehip and hibiscus stuff with what turned out to be a rather generic berry flavor--labeled as blueberry and sea buckthorn--might work the best with slightly watery blackcurrant. With a little generic black tea thrown in for the bit of tannins. Plus, of course, buttloads of sugar to supplement what's in the remnants of the blackcurrant syrup.

That open bottle seems to be perfectly fine after sitting in the fridge for probably a couple months now. It's basically simple syrup made with currant juice. I actually grabbed a little last night to bring my blood sugar back up. But, just in case there are some low level microbes trying to grow in there by now which might try to take over before the added yeast can, I may as well essentially pasteurize the stuff by pouring it in with the hot just-brewed tea (checking temperature to make sure it's high enough). Two birds with one stone, probably: knock back anything in the juice, while also helping the tea cool down faster.

Will that combo be drinkable?

Not much wasted if it doesn't turn out the best, though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ My favourite type of experiment lately.
