Cloudberry is a delicious fruit that comes from a rhizomatous herb scientifically known as Rubus chamaemorus. [1] Many people are unfamiliar with cloudberries because they primarily grow in arctic or alpine environments, as well as in boreal forests in the northern hemisphere. Produces amber-colored edible fruit similar to the raspberry or blackberry

Known Location

Growth form:

The cloudberry grows to 10–25 cm (4–10 in) high. The leaves alternate between having 5 and 7 soft, handlike lobes on straight, branchless stalks. After pollination, the white (sometimes reddish-tipped) flowers form raspberry-sized aggregate fruits which are more plentiful in wooded rather than sun-exposed habitats. Consisting of between 5 and 25 drupelets, each fruit is initially pale red, ripening into an amber color in early autumn.

General habitat:

Alpine areas and near the arctic zones

Uses:

• Food
• In alpine areas, traditional liqueurs such are made of cloudberry, having a strong taste and high sugar content. Cloudberry is used as a flavoring for making akvavit.
• Makes into a delicious jam rich in vitamin C
