I made acorn coffee once and to be honest it was a waste of time. It's not unpleasant to drink but a bit nothingy and nowhere near as nice as real coffee or tea. I found removing the shells of the acorns an epic ballache.
(Isn't a bramble just another word for a blackberry, or does it mean the plant?)

Asking well ahead, what's the deal with eating acorns? I was always told you can't eat them, but they seem to pop up from time to time on Great British Menu etc. I'm trying to decide if they actually mean acorns or if it's something like when people say they're making bramble jam when they actually mean they're making blackberry jam, not making it out of brambles.
I'm thinking acorn coffee, which looks like it's actual roasted acorns. But I don't want to die of conker poisoning.
