currant
Small dried grape
A currant is a small dried grape used in baking, darker and smaller than a raisin: currant scones, hot cross buns studded with currants.
Currant also names several shrubs of the genus Ribes and their tart berries—red, black, or white—used in jams, jellies, and liqueurs like cassis.
