You won't drink the same water all the time. And you don’t run into the store for juices. But in summer heat and in the winter cold, recipes for preparing vitamin fruit drinks will always come to the rescue.
The taste palette of this life-giving moisture is quite rich. How many berries - so many flavors you can get. And also their combinations can please yourself and your loved ones.
This natural and healthy drink can be prepared in minutes, both from fresh ingredients, and from jam. It can be boiled or consumed in its original form without heat treatment.
So what is required to make fruit drink? Believe it or not, only 3 ingredients are enough! Water, berries and sugar (or honey)!
To begin with, berries are usually prepared. Fresh ones are moved and cleaned of all kinds of leaves and stalks, then washed under cool water.
With frozen ones, you will have to tinker a bit.
To bring them into a melted state, usually the blanks are pulled out of the refrigerator and poured into a colander, and it is placed on top of a deep cup so that the precious juice does not flow out as it thaws. At room temperature, the raw material will reach the desired state in just an hour.
But if you are planning to cook in the morning, then it is better to leave this design in the common chamber of the refrigeration unit, and during the night you will get beautiful tender berries from the ice.
In no case should you use boiling water to speed up defrosting. It will not only damage them, but also instantly destroy useful vitamins.
Also, in order to avoid oxidation, it is advisable to use only enamelware and cooking tools other than metal. It is better to take a wooden rolling pin or a plastic pestle.
However, no one forbids you to work with what is more convenient for you. This is a personal matter for everyone.
That was more benefit and it turned out to be a saturated concentration, it is best to chop the berries. You can grind them by hand or use a blender, mixer or juicer. And some use the good old meat grinder for this.
Then the crushed raw materials should be separated from the cake, for this it is ground through a sieve, or squeezed through cheesecloth. And then it is desirable to sweeten the squeezed mashed potatoes. It can be the usual sugar, and many add honey - it is much healthier and gives the drink a completely different amazing taste.
The resulting mass is well mixed and diluted with cool water to your liking. That's all - the drink is ready!
Many prefer to bring the crushed sweet mixture to a boil with a small amount liquid, and only then dilute with boiled water. In a sense, this will be correct - after all, not all berries can be perceived by the body with a bang.
A small heat treatment will allow you to get more taste from the cake, and eliminate unwanted components that disturb the stomach when they are used raw.
However, if there are no berries, then you can always do the same with jam. You don't need to add sugar anymore - it's already sweet enough.
Such liquid yummy can be stored for up to three days, provided that you keep it closed in the refrigerator.
If you do not like small inclusions of pulp and skins, then you can always filter the raw materials through a strainer or cheesecloth more thoroughly before draining into a container.
Cowberry juice without boiling berries (step by step recipe)
Lingonberries are insanely useful, especially in the winter season! Not only is it a natural antioxidant and antibiotic, it is also an excellent remedy for fatigue and beriberi.
Many people prefer to cook fruit drinks from it, but for me it turns out more compote, so I do it a little differently.
We will need:
- Water - 2 liters.
- Lingonberries - 1.5 cups.
- Sugar - 1 glass.
Cooking:
1. Put a pot of water on the fire, add sugar and bring the syrup to a boil. After waiting until all the crystals are completely dissolved, you can remove from heat. Then cool to room temperature.
While the syrup is cooling, sort out the lingonberries from debris and rinse under running cool water. Throw in a colander to excess water could flow without any obstacles.
2. As soon as the sweet liquid cools down, pour the berries into a special flask or into a jar. Add a little sugar water so that it is flush with the lingonberries.
This must be done in order to make it easier to grind the berry. By itself, she is quite tough, so some water will help her with this.
3. Beat everything well with a blender until smooth. Should be uniform fragrant porridge. It is slightly similar to a smoothie and has its own unique flavor.
4. Strain the resulting puree through a sieve to remove the hard cake. To do this, you can use a spoon, or a crush for cooking mashed potatoes. If it was not at hand, you can take a clean piece of gauze and fold it into two or three layers. The effect will be exactly the same.
You can squeeze lingonberry puree immediately into a saucepan with cooled syrup, so as not to stain a lot of dishes.
5. Mix the resulting mixture well and you can pour the precious nectar into a decanter. Before serving, it is advisable to cool the drink in the refrigerator.
It tastes with a slight pleasant bitterness, which only adds extra points to it.

A storehouse of vitamins is sea buckthorn. In order not to lose them, it is best not to boil the berries during cooking, and in no case pour boiling water over them. It is best to simply dilute the prepared raw materials with cool purified water.
As a last resort, use a warm liquid to preserve all the beneficial trace elements.
We will need:
- Sea buckthorn berries - 150 gr.
- Sugar - ½ cup.
- Water - to taste.
Cooking:
1. First you need to rinse the sea buckthorn, remove debris and twigs. It is difficult to pick berries, and therefore there is always a lot of this good among the harvested.
2. Mash clean orange berries until pureed. It is better to do this in a tall dish so that the oily juice squeezed out does not stain everything around. In addition, it is completely undesirable to spray precious drops.)
A blender is fine for grinding. Although I would recommend you a regular crush, because it will not crush hard bones and will not add bitterness to our drink. The taste will be more “clean” and natural.
3. Pour sugar into the crushed raw materials and mix well. Dilute with water to desired consistency and serve.
4. Someone likes to eat the remaining particles of berries, so ready mix you can not filter.
But if small children drink fruit drinks, then it is better to first pass the sweet puree through a sieve or squeeze it through gauze. And only then already obtained thick juice dilute with water.
And sugar in this case it is better to add after the skins and bones have been removed.
It is better to serve the drink slightly chilled, but by the way - this is already a matter of taste.
If you did not find fresh or frozen berries, then feel free to cook, it will also be very tasty.
