If you’re using frozen cranberries, be sure to thaw them before you make your juice. If you want to make more juice, simply increase the amount of cranberries and water at a 1:1 ratio. For instance, you might use 8 cups (500 g) of cranberries and 8 cups (1. 9 L) of water.

Use a medium or large saucepan that’s big enough to hold the berries and water.

The water will start to turn red as more and more berries pop.

If you have cheesecloth, use it to line your strainer so you won’t get any pulp in your juice. This will give you a juice that has the consistency of store-bought juice.

For 1 quart (0. 95 L) of cranberry juice, add about 1 cup (200 g) of sugar or 1. 25 cups (240 g) of stevia or sugar in the raw. Adjust the sugar to your taste.

It’s okay if the mixture doesn’t quite start boiling. You just want the juice to be hot enough to dissolve the sweetener.

Be careful when handling hot pots so you don’t accidentally burn yourself. Use a pot holder or tea towel to protect your hand.

Make sure your pitcher is heat-safe. Some glass pitchers may crack if the juice is still hot when you pour it in the pitcher. You can store your juice in the refrigerator for a few days. Don’t drink it if you see any mold in the juice or the juice starts to smell.

Make sure you thaw frozen cranberries before using them for juice. If you want to adjust the recipe, do a 1:1 ratio of cranberries to water. For instance, you could use 1 lb (250 g) of cranberries and 1 quart (0. 95 L) of water.

Make sure the lid is secure so your cranberry mixture doesn’t spray everywhere.

Make sure all of the berries are blended before you proceed to the next step. Typically, this takes no longer than 2-3 minutes. However, you may need a few extra minutes if your blender is slow or has a dull blade.

For clearer juice, line your strainer with cheesecloth so you can filter out all of the cranberry pieces.

If you made 2 cups (0. 47 L) of cranberry juice, use about . 5 cup (100 g) of sugar or about 2/3 cup (120 g) of stevia or sugar in the raw to sweeten your juice. Always adjust the sweetener to your taste.

If you notice mold or a foul smell, discard the juice because it’s likely spoiled.
