In the U.S. currant often means Zante currants, or dried Cornith grapes that are really just small raisins. Fresh red or black currants (pictured right) aren't widely available, but worth seeking out if they're grown near you.
Black currant is a popular fruit, both for its flavor and for its extremely high concentration of vitamin C. The plant is little known in America. The best cultivars for fresh eating are those such as 'Blackdown', 'Brodtorp', 'Goliath', and 'Silvergieters', which have mild and sweet fruits.
