Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup cranberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup orange juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 cup cold water
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 4 pieces ice cubes
Instructions
Wash the cranberries and raspberries thoroughly under cold water if they are fresh. If frozen, let them thaw for a few minutes to make blending easier.
In a blender, combine the cranberries, raspberries, orange juice, and cold water.
Add honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter juice. Adjust to taste as desired.
Blend the mixture on high speed for 1-2 minutes until smooth and fully combined.
Place a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth over a bowl or pitcher. Pour the blended juice through the strainer to separate the pulp, pressing down with a spoon to extract all the liquid.
Discard the pulp or use it for another recipe, such as smoothies or baking.
Pour the strained juice into glasses. Add 2 ice cubes to each glass for a chilled drink.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Cran Raspberry Orange Juice!
