Syrup and jam!
Or just dry them for tea :-)

I thought they gained in vitamin C after the first frost. Why not wait a
bit longer?

I made a jelly once. Due to not taking the natural pectin into
consideration, I ended up with candies. Much better than the jelly orange
slices I ate as a kid. ;>

I usually dry some and use them in tea and hot spiced cider. Great way to
get extra vitamin C in the winter.

The ones we picked we used for jelly, but we waited until after the first
frost to harvest them. You might try it both ways.
