How to prepare easy fruit and berry fresh juice

All we can guess that the fruit juice that we buy in the store are not as useful as fresh. They are much less vitamins and minerals, a lot of preservatives. Of course, buying the juice in the store - it is more convenient, easier and faster than every time to cook it at home. But we can prepare the juice from fruits and berries for future use!


For some reason, many are accustomed to drink mostly fruit juices from overseas - orange, peach, pineapple. Do not forget that you can make juice from the berries and fruits that grow in your giving. I make juice out of the black and red currants, cherries, raspberries, cranberries, apples and pears, as well as gooseberries and plums.

If you do not have a special juicer, you can use a regular blender or meat grinder. I tell my way of cooking fruit and berry juices.

Carefully my our fruits or berries, cleans them from everything from which they can be cleaned (skin, seeds, sepals), and well ground in a blender or meat grinder. It's time to press the juice. If you do not have special juicer, you can overcome a lot of fruit and berry juice with a clean cotton cloth.

If a lot of fruits and berries, juicing can be done in two steps. In order to re-wringing, squeezing in a lot of need to add a bit of hot boiled water. The first pressing is used for making juice, and the second for the preparation mors or jelly.

Add the sugar in the juice can be home or in very small quantities or not to add at all. For example, when cooking juice from the cherries, I add half a cup of sugar to 1 liter of pressed juice. The more acid will be your juice, the longer it will be stored. Thus, the juices of cranberry and wild cherry kept longer than juices from the raspberries and pears.

Here's our helpful and willing to house the juice. To juice was stored for a long time, to temperatures 95 degrees for 5-7 minutes in hot poured banks. Banks must be sterile clean. To do this, they should be thoroughly washed and rinsed with boiling water. Banks with hot juice immediately rolls pasteurized lids and cool at room temperature.

In no case should not be used for juices spoiled, rotten or moldy fruit! This juice is not only not useful, it will be unpleasant and may even cause gastrointestinal disorders in its use.

Two weeks later, I check all the cans of juice. If they are okay, send them in a cool dark place (for example, on the bottom shelf of refrigerator). Well, if found something to be in good juice should not be (turbidity, mold or signs of fermentation), the juice is not subject to further storage, it can not drink. Because of what could happen turbidity or damage juice? Most likely, you have violated the conditions of preparation, perhaps, some dishes were not clean.

Fruit juices have a very homemade great value, because they retained almost all the benefits of fresh fruit. In the summer of such juices perfectly quench thirst, and in winter give the charge of vitamins and a piece of summer!
