Also known as squawbush, lemonade sumac is an aromatic shrub in the same plant family as poison ivy, cashews, pistachios, and mangos. Native Americans used its stems for many years in basketmaking, and its tart berries were used to flavor a fruit drink. Dried berries were used as an ingredient of pemmican, and the berries, leaves, and twigs form an important wildlife browse.
