THE JUJUBES IN THE ABANORITZ PARK AND THE PARTY ABOUT THEM..

The jujube is the protagonist!

 

At the end of the AbanoRitz park, towards the street, there are some Jujubes trees whose foliages are shining and with small leaves. The main tree is older then 35 years and still grows luxuriant along the strong perimeter wall which was built in the 70s; whereas, nearby, next to the grapevine, the 10 years old trees peep out.

This ornamental plant which growth is very slow is originally from Siria and is known for the “Jujube broth”: a liquor made of withered jujubes fruits, quince apples, eggs, wine, sugar and grated lemon peels. The alcohol content is very low since the the wine is just used as a flavor and it evaporates throughout the cooking.

The jujube tree arrived in Italy around 1660 and now it’s typical in the Euganean Hills where every year, in the fruits maturation season, at the beginning of October, in Arquà Petrarca takes place the “Jujube Festival”. The jujube is a nice and exclusive product with a tasty and sweet taste whose juice is used for making jams and biscuits.

Jujubes have many properties: they are full of vitamin C, phosphorus and iron. The help digesting, sleeping; they calm anxiety and pain and most of all these fruits are also useful in case of constipation and high pressure.

 

The Jujube Festival

 

In one of the nicest and 1300’s borough in Italy, the one of Arquà Petrarca, there, since many years the artisanal production of the jujubes drink has been preserved, following the original one.

So in the verdant AbanoRitz park we want to bring you also this year to the traditional Jujube Festival in Arquà Petrarca that will take place on October Sunday 7th and 14th.

Waiting for us at the Festival there are music performances, art and handcraft exposures and most of all the house of the well-known writer, philosopher and poet Francesco Petrarca that will be possible to visit during the Festival.

There also are a lot of restaurants where is possible to taste the typical specialties, which will all have as main ingredient this beloved fruit, and also delicious local wines. These and other activities are possible thank to the collaboration with our important partner: the Strada Del Vino Dei Colli Euganei.
