HOMEMADE PEACH JUICE

10:12 AM



What to do when your husband buys you 10 kg of peaches? Peach juice and peach jam!  I used 5 kilos for juice and 3 kilos for jam. I was making juice for the first time since I usually like to drink raw juices or smoothies to preserve all the vitamins and minerals. But they say there's always first time for everything, so I made this juice which turned out amazing. I really enjoyed making it.


Ingredients:
  • 5 kg of peaches
  • 4 kg of water
  • 1 kg of sugar
  • 2 packs of citric acid (10-15 grams)
Preparation:
  1. First, I put all peaches in the sink covered with water and I added 2 tbs of soda bicarbonate. I left them for 1 hour. The soda neutralizes the pesticides.
  2. Then, clean the seeds and cut peaches in pieces.
  3. Put them in a blender and add some of the water.
  4. Process the liquid through a strainer.
  5. Put the blended peaches, together with the rest of the water, sugar and lemon in a large pot. I didn't have a big pot so I divided the work in 2 smaller pots.
  6. When the liquid begins to boil, leave to boil for 20-30 minutes more. Remove the foam that will form on the surface.

  7. Pour the hot juice in hot glass bottles. Leave to cool and then keep in the fridge.
