Apple juice at home

Cookinero 13 Jan 2023

Prepare apple juice at home, pour it into jars, roll it up, and then in the cold season you will always have a tasty and healthy drink at hand. What varieties are best to use? Preferably sweet, as we intentionally do not add sugar to the juice. Ideally, it would be good to make juice from seasonal ones: they are more fragrant. If you have a rich harvest of apples in your country house, of course, take them! The juicing process is quite simple and not too long. But you should definitely pay attention to the thorough sterilization of cans and lids, because the safety of the drink and its quality directly depend on this.
