Boerenjongens

Boerenjongens is a Dutch specialty from Groningen, consisting of raisins that are soaked and preserved in brandy and spices such as sugar and cinnamon. The raisins are traditionally reserved for special occasions such as Christmas and similar celebrations.

It is recommended to serve them in small glasses with a small spoon on the side. Today, boerenjongens are also used as a stuffing for meat or as a topping for yogurt or pancakes.
