Blackberries can be found in abundance in hedgerows throughout Ireland from late summer right up until early Autumn. There are plenty of things you can make with them, but an absolute classic is this simple jam.
Scones are so quintessentially Irish and are something nearly everyone has a recipe for, whether it belongs to you, your mother or was even passed down from your grandmother. This recipe has a sweet twist with the use of some lovely Irish honey alongside the traditional ingredients. The addition of this great Irish product gives the scones a lovely heady flavour and really adds that special something to a classic recipe.
