Black Chokeberry juice

I got some chokeberries from my friends and decided to do some juice. I found some recipes and decided to go on my own way a little... I've never done any juices but I think I did okay :)

about 1l of black chokeberries
3dl water
0,5tsp citric acid (I got it from the pharmacy)
2dl sugar

1. Blend the berries in a pot with a blending machine.

2. Boil some water and mix the citric acid in it. Let the mixture to cool down a bit.

3. Add the water in the berry pot. Mix them together.

4. Let the mixture be in the fridge for 2 days. Mix couple times.

5. Crush the berries through a sieve to another pot with your hands. (Use gloves! This berry tends to color everything...)

6. Pour every last drop and berry through the sieve.

7. Mix 2dl of sugar to the juice you have created. This may take little time since the juice is cold.

8. Bottle the juice.


Those who have more sweet tooth person in them can add more sugar to the juice since the chokeberry is quite sour.

I also noticed that 1:1 is good if you want to dilute the juice a bit with water. I like this juice just as it is. :)
