Fix and swap

Didn't come out right? Fix it.

  • Too tart

    Use a smaller cranberry portion next time, or stir in a little freshly pressed pear.

  • Too pulpy

    Choose firm-ripe pears for the next batch; strain this batch if you prefer a smoother texture.

  • Pear?

    Asian pear. Makes a crisper, lighter-tasting base; remove the core and all seeds.

  • Ginger?

    Leave it out. Keeps the sweet-tart orchard flavor without the spicy finish.

Yield, prep and calorie ranges are rough planning estimates. Calories come from the recipe's produce types, not a lab test, and everything varies with produce size, ripeness and your juicer.

Storage

Use clean equipment and a clean covered bottle. Refrigerate promptly and enjoy the same day for best flavor. This is fresh raw juice, not a shelf-stable drink; discard it if storage history or freshness is questionable. Yield is a produce-size estimate and varies with the fruit and juicer. This website provides general recipe and nutrition education only and is not medical advice.

Serving: Juices can fit well near a balanced meal or snack, especially when the recipe is fruit-forward.
