It does appear crinkled and corrugated and then develops into a fine looking plant with wonderful leaves
and stems which range in color from 
green to bright red. Rhubarb. Tart does not quite express the tongue puckering which occurs when biting a fresh stem but, in a pie, cobbler, tart or syrup, rhubarb is unique and tasty. 
This weekend I tried the Rhubarb mojito. Rhubarb juice is made by stewing the rhubarb with sugar and water and then straining the pulp. The juice is mixed with a bit of rum, a bit of club soda and a sprig of mint. I will try them again and, if you have an objection to rum, just use the club soda for a refreshing and distinctively flavored drink. 
Delicious, distinctive, refreshing. Check out the recipe over at David’s blog and enjoy his superb photos in addition to his juice recipe.
