Cloudberries

/ˈklaʊdbɛriz/ noun

Definition

Plural of cloudberry; small, golden-yellow berries that grow in northern regions, named for their appearance among clouds or mists.

Etymology

From 'cloud' plus 'berry'; the first part of the name likely refers either to their growth in misty mountain areas or their appearance (pale and ethereal like clouds).

Kelly Says

Cloudberries are practically liquid gold in Scandinavia—they're so rare and delicious that people guard their picking spots like treasure maps, and Swedes have even trademarked recipes using them!
