Have you tried doing things that you really enjoy? Well I'm telling you, that's how I feel at this moment. Have a great day to all of us hivers!
It was afternoon when I visited my friend on their house. When I was on their gate, I was surprised and found out the attracting fruits that at first I didn't know what it was. She had plenty of different variety of fruit trees in her surrounding but this one is not familiar with me. I asked my friend about it and she told me that it was a cranberry plant. Wow! First time in my life!
Have you seen a cranberry plant? I know that some of us are not familiar with this plant because it is not native in our locality. For my 44th year existence of this planet I only seen this cranberry plant, that is why I found it amazing.
There are many ripe cranberry fruits from the tree, so we picked it up and put in a plastic. We chose to pick the dark purple fruits. We have so much fun in picking it up. I felt like I am a child doing that work full of eagerness and excitement. I have to be careful because there are thorns between its branches.
What I gonna do with the fruits? I tried to taste the fruit but to my surprised it was very sour and a little bitter. I know children wouldn't like to taste it. It looks attractive but if we compare it to guava it would make a difference. For sure this one is good for a juice only.
I have seen a cranberry juice from the mall and it was quite expensive. That I seldom buy because of the tight budget. Now I have the chance to make my own juice.
I know that there are lots of vitamins that we can get from the cranberry juice. Drinking it will definitely boost our immune system and protect us from any illnesses. So I planned to make my own juice and hopefully I can serve it to my daughters.
Here it is! Looks like a Java Plum (duhat) but it tasted differently. The only problem with this cranberry is we cant eat this one directly. Instead we have to spend time in extracting juice from the fruit. Whatever efforts you gonna exert I know it is worthy.
I separated the seeds from its fruits so that it won't taste so much bitter. I put the flesh of the fruit into the plastic container. I used only half of the harvested fruits because it will be over if I put everything in the blender.
I put some water into the container so that the blender will turn and I can get more juices from extracting it. I am very excited for the result, I want to try my first ever cranberry juice.
Almost done I let the blender turns for 1 minute only until it was totally fine. I've got the container from the blender and I used a strainer to filter the juice from the flesh and skin of the fruits.
Patiently getting the juice until I am done in doing it. I got 1 full of glass that was very thick, I think I need more water to dilute the juice.
I always wanted to prepare a nutritious juice for my daughters but sometimes I dont have fruits to blend. So this time I did an expirement in extracting the juice. From its color I wanted to taste the juice right away.
To enhance the flavor I put a little honey into the juice and a little ice. Stirring the mixture in a few seconds will totally give the better taste.
It is better to make our own juice because there is an assurance that it is really nutritious and healthy that is good for our body.

Hi @simplybil
We welcome you to the Amazing Drinks community. We see that it is the first time that you publish in this community, and you bring a wonderful juice, very colorful and nutritious. We have loved your post, where you share the experience of having harvested the fruit directly from the tree, that is great; What's more, it would be great if you put the seeds you have left from the blueberries to germinate and have your own plant, surely it is a variety that adapts to warmer climates.
That being said, we wanted to make some observations to your post, and they are the following:
If you read our community rules, you will see that in number 3, we ask our users to include a minimum of 3 photos where they appear making their amazing drinks.
You also need to include the amounts you used of each ingredient; well, since this is a recipe post, so that readers can make it, this information is necessary. This is necessary in all food or drink recipe posts.
Once again, welcome to the community.
Thank you so much amazing drinks for welcoming me here. I will follow the rules next time.
That looks really good!
Cranberries are absolutely delicious and full of nutrition.
Hello there @ganjafarmer, I am very happy that I've made my own cranberry juice. Maybe I can have more because I let the seeds grow in my pot. Thanks for your time!
Growing things is an amazing blessing.
Wow! Kalami sa berries.😊
Yes ma'am very healthy and nutritious, good for our children.
Hello, mam Bil thank you for sharing your blog about cranberry it is new for me. This kind of fruit I saw it in many times. But I never taste it because I am afraid it is not familiar for me. Now I know that the cranberry is good for fruit juice. Thank you... And I also wanna try to drink the cranberry juice.
I will give you a cranberry seedlings if you want but we have to wait for a weeks for them to grow until I can prick the seedlings. You can try making your own juice someday if you have your own cranberry plant. Thank you also for your time in reading my blog.
Yes, thank you @simplybil if you sharing me some seedlings of cranberry I like to have it in my garden too.
that juice looks delicious, its color is beautiful and how nutritious it must be, plus I loved the tree that you show us in the photo, what a privilege to have taken the fruit directly from the tree.
Yeah you are right ma'am @carisma77 it gives a total package the fun in picking the fruits and drinking the nutritious juice. Thank you for supporting my blog.
Yummy cranberries. I tasted cranberries the first time when my cousin gave me and it’s so sour!😅 I haven’t tried a sweet one, much more of a drink. It looks tasty!✨
Hehehe, yes very sour fruit but it gives us different vitamins that our body needs. Best paired with honey to taste better.
Aw craneberry diay na siya? Naadaghan dri sa amo silingan😅
Mao ba ma'am try to make a juice from it.
The cranberry looks amazing tho I've not seen it before,don't even know if it's been grown here in my part of the country region,but I'm glad you're able to let me see what it looks like,I hope to ask around to know more about it .
Thanks for sharing and enjoy your juicy cranberry
I'm glad that you like also my cranberry juice, its my pleasure sharing this to all hivers. Thank you for time @de-covenant!
in my country this fruit is called the Renda fruit and usually we make this fruit into sweets @simplybil
Wow amazing I hope you can blog about this fruit making into sweets.
My mum has this tree in her house and she does not allow me to pick and try to eat them because it just randomly sprouted there.
Your mom should try making juice out of this fruit because it is very nutritious. Thanks for spending a little time reading my blog @akumagai.
Thanks I'll be investigating her plant more just to make sure it is the exact same thing as you have on your post.
It's great that you were able to pick the blueberries and make fresh juice. I have read that this fruit is extremely beneficial to our health, one particular case is to help us fight stubborn urinary tract infections.
Here in my country, Venezuela, it is also quite expensive and difficult to get, so your friend has a real treasure.
I am very thankful to my friend that she gave me this fruit, I am sure I can produce it in my own because I let the seeds grow. Thank you so much for the information that you shared to me about this juice can fight UTI.
Hi, I agree with you, straight from the tree to get fresh juice, it is definitely a wonderful experience. I have never tasted the juice of this fruit. Greetings.
