This juice is a far more healthier alternative to ready - made drinks, it's made quickly and can be kept in the fridge for up to six days. Also great to freeze in ice cube trays, which can be popped out and put into a glass along with water for a chilled summers day drink.
Makes about 300ml before diluting
Ingredients
350g Blackberries or Blueberries
130g Caster Sugar
Ice Cubes
Sparkling Mineral Water
Method
1. Examine the fruit carefully, removing the stalks and wash thoroughly. Allow the fruit to dry.
2. Push the fruit through the juicer.
3. Put the sugar in a small, heavy pan with 100ml of water. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves, stirring with a wooden spoon, then bring to the boil and boil for three minutes until syrupy. Reserve until cool.
4. Mix the fruit with the syrup in a jug. Pour roughly 50ml fruit syrup into a glass and add ice. Then top up with the sparkling water.
Neve's thoughts
I used blueberries (Neve's favourite fruit) this time round and well, what can I say.. Neve loved it and to be fair this is my favourite juice I've made. I'll be using this juice for Neve's birthday party as it's much healthier than squash and it's so much taster.
