Does anyone have a non-alcohol recipe for blueberry drink, punch or juice?

Question

Actually, I have a couple of gallons of berries and I'm looking for a recipe to make a drink or punch that I can vacuum seal in mason jars....Thanks to those of you who have responded. Ian

Answer 1

You van make a cordial with almost any soft fruit by simmering fruit pound for pound with sugar, stopping before it sets into jam! Strain and bottle in sterilised bottles, and dilute with water or soda water to taste. Also good with boiling water as a hot drink. If you can, put the bottles, with tops loosely screwed on in a large pan, up to their necks in water, bring to the boil slowly and simmer for 20 minutes. Take out carefully and put on a heat-proof surface and tighten the tops; they will keep for about a year. It makes good icecream topping, too.

For stone fruit add a bit of water so the syrup doesn't stick.

The old English name for these cordials is 'rob' -- elderberry rob is especially good.

If you have a juicer then you can mix blueberries with apples - that tastes really good although it's very simple.

With smoothies...I always throw a few ice cubes into the blender. It REALLY makes a difference! Actually any blend of a juice or milk--with blueberries, a banana, yogurt and ice is great!
