Not a separate species but a pigment-free cultivar of redcurrant. It is generally a little sweeter and less acidic than the red form, and its clusters look translucent white to pale yellow.

Consumption tip

Even natural produce may carry pesticide residues. Wash fruits and vegetables under plenty of running water and discard the outer leaves of leafy greens. A short soak in vinegar water can also help reduce residues. Where possible, prefer certified organic or good-agricultural-practice products.
