FRESH, HOMEMADE APPLE JUICE



Fresh, Homemade Apple Juice image

My mother had a creative way of using the apple cores and peels leftover from making apple pie: to make homemade apple juice. Store-bought apple juice is tasty, but it has a strong, distinct flavor with almost a hint of bitterness. To those with sensitive palates, it can be a little strong at times. Homemade juice, however, tastes surprisingly different as it is lighter and pleasantly sweet without the kick. Besides using a juicer, this is a super-easy way of making apple juice.

DIY CRANBERRY JUICE FROM FRESH CRANBERRIES



DIY Cranberry Juice from Fresh Cranberries image

I don't like all the sugar found in most cranberry juices, and even those without sugar are usually diluted with apple, grape, or pear juice. If you're looking for pure cranberry juice, whether for health reasons or just plain goodness, try this recipe. I love the fact that you can choose to use real sugar or honey, or Stevia or...

Provided by Susan Feliciano

Categories     Other Drinks

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 c fresh cranberries (about 2 bags)
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 c water (use distilled or spring water for purity)
1 c granulated sugar
**OR, FOR SUGAR-FREE, USE ONE OF THE OPTIONS BELOW**
1 1/4 c stevia-in-the-raw or splenda, **or**
7/8 c light honey, like clover or orange blossom
additional water to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Place the 2 cups of water and lemon juice into a scrupulously clean blender container. Add the 4 cups of cranberries.
  • 2. Blend on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes. If your blender is very powerful, 2 minutes may be sufficient. I blended mine for the full 3 minutes. You want to arrive at a thick liquid with no solid chunks. Place the lidded blender container in the refrigerator overnight to steep.
  • 3. Remove the container in the morning. Strain the juice through a fine mesh strainer into a medium saucepan. Press to remove all juice. Discard any solid material, or use it to make jam (see my other recipe).
  • 4. Add the sugar (or Stevia, Splenda, or honey) to the juice and heat gently over medium heat just until the sugar or sweetener is dissolved. This will not take long, especially with the calorie-free sweeteners. Do not boil this liquid, just warm it up to aid the dissolving of the sugar.
  • 5. Remove from heat and add 1 cup of cold water. You may add more or less water, depending on your tastes. Less water will yield a sweeter cranberry juice. I used 1 1/2 cups, and it was perfect for me.
  • 6. Transfer the cranberry juice to a drink pitcher, and chill in refrigerator before serving. You can also add ice cubes to speed the chilling process.

Tips for Making the Most of Your Fresh Juice Recipes

  • Choose the right fruits and vegetables. The best juices are made with fresh, ripe produce. Avoid fruits and vegetables that are bruised or damaged.
  • Wash your produce thoroughly. This will help to remove any dirt or bacteria that may be on the surface of the produce.
  • Use a good quality juicer. A good juicer will extract the maximum amount of juice from your fruits and vegetables.
  • Drink your juice fresh. Fresh juice is best consumed within 24 hours of juicing. After that, it will start to lose its nutrients and flavor.
  • Experiment with different recipes. There are endless possibilities when it comes to juicing. Try different combinations of fruits and vegetables to find your favorite recipes.

Conclusion

Fresh juice is a delicious and healthy way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make fresh juice at home. So next time you're looking for a healthy snack or drink, reach for a glass of fresh juice instead of a sugary soda or processed juice. Your body will thank you!
