Description
A bright, tangy berry juice that’s simple to make and refreshes without heaviness.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 and 1/2 cups blackberries, fresh or frozen
- 1 and 1/2 cups raspberries, fresh or frozen
- 1 medium apple or pear, cored and chopped, or 1/2 to 3/4 cup cold water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 inch fresh ginger, peeled and sliced (optional)
- 4 to 6 ice cubes
- 1 to 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional, to taste)
Instructions
- Rinse berries well. If using an apple or pear, core and chop it.
- Add berries, apple or water, lemon juice, ginger if using, and a few ice cubes to your blender. Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds until fully liquid.
- Pour through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher, pressing with a spoon to remove seeds and extra pulp.
- Add honey or maple if more sweetness is desired, or a splash more lemon for zing. Blend or stir again.
- Pour into a chilled glass. Optionally, add a small pinch of sea salt on top to enhance the flavors.
Notes
For a smoother sip, strain the juice. Serve immediately for the best taste. You can also use frozen berries to chill the juice without watering it down.
