Transparent plum juice for the winter without a juicer - how to make plum juice at home.

How to make juice from plums without a juicer.

It's easy to prepare. The fruits need to be washed, after removing the tails, and then placed in a pan. You can leave the seeds, since we will remove them later, and now they do not affect the taste of the juice in any way.

Place the pan with the fruits on a heated stove and wait until the plums soften and juice appears at the bottom. At this time, you need to monitor the heating temperature of the juice (for this it is better to use a special kitchen thermometer) and not allow the mass in the pan to have a temperature of more than seventy degrees.

Transfer the hot mass into a canvas bag and hang it over a basin to drain the juice. The juice can be helped to flow out through the cloth by manually squeezing the bag.

Strain the resulting thick juice with pulp through a fine kitchen sieve. If you don’t have one, then through multi-layer gauze.

The juice must be allowed to settle, and then the transparent upper part must be drained.

Place this clear plum juice on the stove again and bring it to ninety-five degrees.

Pour the hot juice into steamed jars or bottles and seal them hermetically.

It is better to place bottles on their sides to cool, and turn jars upside down.

The plum pulp that remains after the juice has drained can be used to make thick plum jam or marmalade.

You can also make juice from plums using a juicer. But in this case, no special recipe is needed, but simply read the instructions for your juicer model.
