Equipment

  • blender
  • Fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth

Ingredients
  

Fruits

  • 2 cups cranberries fresh or frozen

Liquids

  • 2 cups pure water
  • 1.5 tablespoons lemon juice or orange juice optional; use lemon juice for Low Vitamin A
  • 1 drizzle raw honey or maple syrup optional, to taste

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Place cranberries and water in a blender and blend on high for 2 minutes.
  • Check to see if there are any solid cranberry pieces left, and if there are, blend again until they disappear.
  • Strain through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth.
  • Stir in lemon or orange juice and sweetener, if desired. I prefer mine unsweetened, but it might be too tangy for some.
  • The juice keeps in the fridge for a few days.
  • If you have a high speed blender, and don’t mind pulp in your juice, consider skipping the straining step and get the benefits of the whole cranberry!

Notes

This juice can be adjusted to taste with various sweeteners or citrus juices.
