    What would you make with prickly pear juice? Syrup? Candy? A tasty beverage?

      Wine. And after watching your video, I realized that I had worked much harder than I had to to get the juice.

    Whats the flavor of the juice? And how did you come to the conclusion of the best process? Thanks!

      It’s like a cross between a cucumber and a watermelon. Not the super sweet taste you might expect from the color.
      Trial and error. I spent 8 hours making a mess of my kitchen with a blender and cheese cloth the first year. All I got was some cloudy, pulpy goop.
      Then I learned you could burn off the spines with a torch, so I spent a few years doing that. It’s tedious and time consuming.
      Once I found out that the fruit have a membrane that pops when the water inside freezes and expands, harvesting the fruit became a breeze.

      Thanks! My mind was blown when I found out I could just freeze and thaw them to get the juice. Had to share it!
