- January is the time when cranberries go on sale. You can stock up and then make delicious and tangy cranberry juice. It is high in Vitamins C and A and is a powerful antioxidant that stops free radicals from damaging cells. It also boosts your immune system. In addition to all of that, it is absolutely beautiful in your canning jars with its rich ruby red color.

I am a cranberry grower.... we use the “syrup” and make a cranberry vinegar
One year I acquired boxes and boxes of cranberries from the local bogs… it took a 5 gallon bucket to make 1 gallon of cranberry concentrate.. I used the steamer/juicer.. anyway, I got about 109 quarts of cranberry concentrate…
Having this in an emergency would be nice for flavoring water. It would help people adjust to water when sodas are not available.
I just made some today. I ordered 25 lbs of frozen cranberries and processed a little under half of them and I got 13 pints. I left them concentrated and unsweetened. I have diabetes and I will sweeten it with approved sweeteners per glass. I had one that didn't seal and I mixed it with 4 pints of water, which was just a little too much water. Next one I make I will mix with 3 pints of water to make 1/2 gallon. I should be able to get another 12 pints making my total 25 pints! I am excited to have these in my pantry since I have a problem with one of my kidneys and cranberry juice helps keep away infections. I am saving the pulp and about 2 lbs of the berries to make cranberry sauce. Thank you for your video. I always enjoy watching and learning from you. :)
I freeze cranberries and use them in muffins, scones and bread all year
I buy enough to last all year and freeze them. My pet pigs love them. I also use them for muffins.
I freeze my cranberries and raisins also. I use the raisins in a cookie recipe with Oatmeal and chocolate chips. It takes no time to rehydrate the raisins. This year I'm going to make a cranberry pudding and several other things.
Thank you and Jim so much. You and the USDA (or delegates) are the only authorities I take notice of for canning. There are so many sources on the internet of it's been done this way (unsafe) for generations... No thanks, I will stay with the science. If I ask really nicely will you please do a cherry freeze dry video, do you blanch? pre freeze etc?
You are keeping lots of people safe one canning video at a time. THANK YOU & JIM, your efforts are greatly appreciated.
Pam & Jim - you need a steam juicer. I use my very often for all kind of fruits. Easy and safe to handle.
In October I picked up 27 packages of cranberries and made sauce and juice as well. I did not add sugar to the juice, as I use it specifically for Urinary Tract health. It is super strong as I don't add sugar before I drink it, but it sure does the trick!
I have to keep cran juice on hand for the same reason, and hate how much sugar is in the store-bought. The diet is disgusting and full of chemicals, and half the time it's grape or apple juice first, then cran 😡😤 im excited to finally have my own "brand" lol. God's brand, if you will 😂
You have the patience of a saint! I might’ve made a pint or two of cranberry syrup, that sounded delicious for pancakes or crepes. Amazing as always, I’ll be on the lookout for clearance now that you’ve given me the confidence to do it. Blessings!
I'm not big on plain cranberry juice, but could you use maybe a 1/4 of apple juice? That looks so good, and it's so good for you! (I'm sending everyone I can to watch your videos! 😁 You're such a great teacher!)
I have canned crab-apple juice. You’re right, it’s delicious. 😋
I would like it with raspberries as well.
Sure can!
Someone else added applesauce to the juice to make cran apple juice. I liked that idea.
Yes. Every one of the juicy juices are a base of apple and pear juice. I am going to use orange juice in mine. I had it started before I took a break and saw this video.
Great idea. I think i would use my steam juicer. Happy new year to you both!
Kris in Orlando
I love it when I get to see both you and Jim. Happy New Year to you both.
Janice: Thank you! Happy New Year to you, too! Jim
I was so worried about your beautiful blouse when you were pouring that cranberry juice! 😂😂
I’m so excited to see you do this today! I have many bags in the freezer and it was about to prep them for the freeze dryer. You gave me the idea to juice and then freeze dry. We will use the powder which we will we sweeten with stevia we we reconstitute. I’ve got my cranberries on the stove right now!
Gesundheit, Jim!
I found the joys of pomegranate molasses from a specialty store. It is bitter, so I add a touch of honey and use it when I saute chicken and pork. I used a real mark-down bargain on balsamic vinegar, reduced it and added figs and pears to one, and blueberries to another, which I also brush on meat before cooking, or used in pilafs, etc. and dressings, (good for fruit). Your thick cranberry juice has inspired me to try to do this, and reduce it more to use like my vinegars, or to add to vinegar. Oh, the drink syrup sounds wonderful!
I water bath canned my cranberry juice concentrated not syrupy a bit diluted. I did not add sugar to my jars. I water bath processed it in jars. Then removed let them ping in the counter and cool. Then store them. When I would open them I would just dilute the concentrate add sugar and make enough jars to refrigerate to drink them
I want to give a little tip, I have been making cranberry juice the last 3 or 4 years and my first experience was much like your as far as the straining goes. It was exhausting to say the least until I bought the food strainer attachment for my kitchenaid mixer. It was AMAZING! the time you save with the straining made a huge difference. After I cooked my berries I put them through the kitchenaid strainer. It took so much of the solids out I could skip the time in the fridge waiting for the sediment to fall to the bottom. I did run the juice I got after the strainer process through a sieve with cheesecloth, which went quickly. I was able to get it all done in one day. If you have a kitchenaid mixer I highly recommend the strainer attachment, I think I paid around $25 for it, if you dont have the mixer I have seen manual food mills maybe they would work as well. Thanks for you videos! You are my go to girl😊
Thank you for this tip. We appreciate that.
Oh heavenly instructions (Said with Batman & Robin tone). 7 quarts is a wonderful yield for all your efforts. You two run rings around me. Sort and clean the berries, heat to boiling, strain, refrigerate 2 days, come home from work and de-sediment pour into luscious Pam's favorite jam pot, heat mixture dilute if necessary, add sugar to taste & ONLY if too tart. One step I might suggest is to use an immersion blender while still in Pam's pan before the quart segments (I did hear you say you are alright with solids in the juice) BUT in case you wanted to try one batch for effect...then lid & ring as usual finger tight, get them in their bath take them out after 20 -25 mins listen for the pop & let cool. Place on shelf & admire your God given talent & patience...enjoy at the next planned or surprise splurge.... just typing all that I am pooped ....just kidding 😊😇😇😇💜. Thank you for this video and the appearance of Jim was a lovely part too!! 😊
What an awesome idea. I was gifted a steam juicer for Christmas so I will see if I can find a recipe using a steamer. Glad to see you feeling better and beautiful as usual.
I have a steam juicer, I just sprinkle sugar over the top of the berries, or for my diabetic mum, I add dried stevia leaf to the top of the basket
We use to home can cranberries, concord grapes, plums by using a juices and we paid 1$100.00 for 45 years ago…..and still us it. The juice came out very clear and no sediment. The juice was very “thickish”, too, but we bottled it that way…..and deluted it when we poured it into a picher. Always fun to make our own juice.
I use a juice steamer to get my juice, but this year I could not find cranberries for juicing. Fortunately I did quite a bit of cranberry juice a couple years ago. I've also made rhubarb juice, apple juice, berry juice, and grape juice (my personal favorite).
Great find on the cranberries! Just fyi- I found a very expensive new juicer at Goodwill for $15.00.
I use a pair of knee high hoses to do my straining. You don''t lose any liquid to any cloth or paper filters and they are great strainers and washable and re usable.
Gorgeous juice
It was good to see Jim, since we so rarely see him! I’m wondering if you saved the leftover cranberry pulp? You could have put that in the freeze dryer and powdered it up for cranberry supplements to help out urinary issues. The juice looks wonderful, though!
I was thinking the exact same thing. Could use powder in baking or even add to fruit desserts.
Me too. Chicken treats or maybe freeze some pulp for muffins?
Hmmm...I bet you could make cranberry vinegar with it! Definitely could with the shriveled ones as long as they aren't moldy.
Straight undiluted /unsweetened cranberry juice concentrate can be sweetened with stevia and diluted with water. I am past the age but when young it was excellent for Feminine yeast infections and has aided in helping heal many UTI’s. This is an excellent fruit to juice and store unsweetened turn into powder- perfect for preparedness!
Thanks for sharing your ideas.
I love cranberry sauce and juice. Hopefully I will be able to find a lot of cranberries on sale. Thanks for sharing.
I hope so too!
How exciting I love cranberry juice and now I know how to Cann some up to put in my pantry. Thank you Pam! Missouri Wrightchk
I love cranberry. Cranberry juice has alot of health benefits.
Yes it does!
I love this type of video. It's a great idea to make your own juices from special offer fruits. Great work Pam and Jim. 😊💯💥💫👍💖
What I did was cook the cranberries in the in my maslin pan you have. Then I scooped a spoonful and put into my Vitamix blender with a bit more added water. Blend it. Then with an a very long cloth coffee filter we find here in Puerto Rico with a handle on it. I put that cloth coffee filter inside a nut milk bag and squeeze the juice through to strain it. Then I pour it a big stainless steel pot and heat it. I sterilize my mason jars and pour my juice in the jars. And water bath.
Thanks for sharing.
Yep! Sorting themis important. You are doing the right thing, Lady.
Thank you!
I have SO MANY CRANBERRIES in my freezer! And we don't like cranberry sauce too much. Thank you!!!
You are so welcome!
OH - I would use any leftover juice or pulp to make a shrub. I've made cranberry and/or apple shrub before and given it at Christmas. It's fruit, vinegar, some type of sweetener basically. I often put some slices of dehydrated orange or lemon in. It is really good in ginger ale, sprite, seltzer water, or just diluted with a little water.
Great idea! Thanks.
Thanks for sharing, I just discovered a whole new part of my canning book, making juice. Happy New year 👩🏽🌾👍🏽🙏🏽🥂🍁
I love cranberry juice. Jim cracked me up.
CBL: Thank you! Jim
Congratulations! This was the best thing I ever saw.
Anne: Thank you! Jim
I love your Maslin pan! Thanks for the great demonstration :-)
You are welcome. I love that pan!
Today I found celery on sale for a great price for very nice bunches. I got several to dehydrate. Looking forward to having it to add to soups, stews and casseroles. :)
B W: Sounds great! Jim
Thank you Pam for this video. My family has grown cranberries on the Washington coast for multiple generations. We have always made cranberry everything but not juice. I recently saw a way to make juice by just putting the cranberries in a jar with sugar and boiling water, water bathing them and let them sit on the shelf for a period of time. I guess it would be like infusing. Do you think that is a safe way? I always appreciate your videos regarding food/canning safety. I have been canning for 45 years and some of these channels make me cringe. I want to say to them “shame on you for passing on bad information to new canners”. LOL. Thank you for always recommending the USDA way. Keeps us all safe!
Hi Karen, I’m curious about the same! Many years ago when I was canning quite a bit we made grape juice by putting grapes in a jar and covering with hot water and then processed. There wasn’t a ‘Pam’ in my life then but I was pretty cautious so I’m hoping the process for the grape juice was okay. I’m hopeful they answer your question too. I’m in western Washington and didn’t know there were cranberry growers here! Best of luck to you for 2022!
With those you have to wait several weeks to be able to enjoy and part of the jar is just berries, while this is straight juice that can be enjoyed immediately. Just a thought.
The reason I blended the heated cranberry is because I wanted to get all the juice out of the cooked cranberry. After squeezing it all I got was very fine pulp dry as could be. I got more juice out of that pulp than ever! I have the 3 pot juicer system too that was my first batch juice I made. But that pulp sure looked still juicy. So I collected it, put in ziplock bags and put in the freezer. I took that pulp and defrosted I cooked in my maslin handle pan on the stove. Then processed blended that adding more water in the Vitamix blended because the juice was quite thick! When I squeezed filtered I got even more juice. Then heated and water bath canned it! My juice looked so pretty!
Wow--dedication! I am impressed.
Well, look at you, brave as can be, canning cranberry juice in your pretty top. That juice will be good in some ice cold ginger ale once summer sets in. I wonder what it would taste like mixed into some cream soda? Remember cream soda? Thanks for the reminder to make sure I have some kind of cranberry juice on my shelves. ~ Lisa
I take a nut milk bag to filter over a strainer and squeeze the juice. Then I put the cooked cranberry in my Vitamix blender with hot water. And blend away. I get extra cranberry juice and filter it through new nut milk bag, I have several of them. Then fill up my mason jars. And water bath it.
Sounds good.
I recently made a mistake when canning my cranberry sauce. I decided to can some so I could have some later in the season. Since the kitchen was busy, I decided to pressure can it in the panty. This was my mistake. That broke down the pectin and I now have jars of thin liquid with a few berries floating in it. I did run to the store to remake the cranberry sauce and made room to water bath it. It came out beautifully. The liquid batch still tastes good if you remove the berries.
Wow! That was a great save. Jim
Always a treat when we get to see Jim too. Thank you Pam for making it the old fashion way.
You are an amazing couple. So nice to see Jim is your kitchen assistant. And yes: coffee filters are not so handy for thick juice. I use cheesecloth for this kind of work. All cooked fruit in the cloth, hang over a bucket, hook all around with clothespins and let drip overnight. The other day you can squeeze the cloth by hand to get as much juice out as possible.
Anne: I am not sure what to say about a kitchen assistant. You are correct about the coffee filters. We ended up cheese cloth and I squeezed it, but was inefficient held the and difficult. In the end, I held the cheese cloth with one hand and ball of leavings and twisted it in my tighter and tighter as opposed to squeezing it by hand. It worked very well. Jim
Beautiful juice! I think I would can it in pints or half pints, as I would only use it with another liquid like you said, Sprite or maybe apple juice. Thanks!
So beautiful. I want to do this to !! I love cranberry!! Especially cranberrjuice with ginger ale
Another great video!!!! I’m running out right now just to see if I can find some cranberries!!! Thank you!!!
Can you do a video with the links of all the kitchen things you love to use? I would love to know what brand your tea pot, silicone scooper, the large pot you use on your stove etc!
And you humor... I love it "Cranberry shirt"'. Hahaha
Anne: Maybe, a new art form. Jim
to drink as straight juice, I'd probably mix half and half with apple juice 🙂
Wonderful video.. I did cranberry juice this year and I love it.. I did mine the same way you did..
great to see you and Jim working together.. 🌞🌹
I love cranberry juice! So excited to make this 😍 thank you for all of your hard work in preparing the videos. We are very blessed to reap the rewards from your years of research and knowledge.
Your expressions are priceless!!! Your videos are the best preserving and informational on RUclips…love you both ❤️
Thank you so much!! We appreciate your kind words.
I have been unsuccessful in finding fresh cranberries. I wanted to can some sauce and make some juice. I acquired a steamer/juicer this summer when I did a bulk purchase of some canning supplies. I had the opportunity to visit with the gal and her mom and they shared stories of the years they canned. Anyway, I’m going to make a note to track cranberries down next year. Great video as always both entertaining and educational! Thank you so much.
They look beautiful! 😊
Thank you.
January is a terrific time to can things like this. My garden will be under three feet of snow for heaven's sake - so having the canner going with all that nice moisture and heat going into the air is good, as are things that help you not do all your canning in the summer and early fall months. I love cranberry juice, and look forward to making this and having juice without extra ingredients that the manufacturers put in. Also, cranberry juice really does help if you think you might be on the verge of a urinary tract infection. The same for cherry juice for gout. My friend is prone to gout, (I only had it once), and the cherry juice grabs uric acid and flushes it out of your joint. He always has it on hand, since if he has gout his foot is so painful that he can't drive, and that is what he does for a living. Plus, it's not like you're taking a drug or something, what is more natural than juice? Especially home made. A severe May frost ruined all of our fruit, including our grapes, so having cranberry juice in the pantry will be super-duper. Thanks Pam and Jim! :)
Loved your comment! Thank you.
@@RoseRedHomestead You're VERY welcome!
I love you are showing juices. I got into juices last year and have found using a brew bag to let them strain provides the best straining for the maximum amount of juice. Brew bags are fairly cheap, washable and reusable.
Watching you do cranberries as I begin the dry soup process. I’ve made 5 quarts of different varieties. Only issue is that a jar with egg noodles will not vacuum seal. I can’t figure out why. Will use these before investing in more dehydrated products, just to be sure we like them. But I’m excited!!!!
Does your jar have a hairline crack in it?
Or a very small dent in the lid...I found a dent in one of our lids. I smoothed dent out and went ahead used it. It worked.
That would make a yummy cocktail..
Yes it would! Ginger ale, or apple juice!
I have some cranberries growing in my yard that escaped from the compost heap. I will give this a try.
Sorry. I took the easy route. Added fresh berries to my jars about 1/2 cup. Added a light syrup mix to fill jars. Put on lids and processed. Will strain out fruit as I drink it.
as always was excited to see your video today. I always try to buy cranberries when I can. my daughter was complaining the other day, you can't open the freezer without them falling out. I make cranberry apple butter and just love it and I also make a cranberry apple chutney, with the remaining one's I have I believe I will make juice. I love cranberry juice. thanks to you and Jim for the easy way of doing these. Blessings to your both, glad you are feeling better.
This is a great recipe for me as I have chronic kidney disease and cranberries are very kidney helpful! Thanks
So glad it was useful for you.
Great video wow 🤩
Thank you for sharing all your experience. You are a truly great educator. I was wondering what did you do with the cranberry pulp that was left over?
One of my favorites for the past 3 yrs. I like a little of the pulp and seeds.
Southern: That reminds me of people who like more pulp in their orange juice. We have not tried the pulp and seeds recipe. Jim
Such a beautiful color. Smart purchase Mr. Jim👍🏻🥰
I am so happy that I was able to purchase the maslin pan some time ago! Thank you for the great information! Take care!
Beautiful!
Watching you try to filter thru a coffee filter is futile. But I just thought, perhaps filter thru one of those metal coffee filter baskets. They're pretty fine.
I need Jim to find me them great deals….my James doesn’t shop much..hahahah I can almost taste that. Great video. Thank you
lyn: I started grocery shopping with my father at 17 (?) and have continued that practice since then. Jim
Great video!! Cranberry juice will also come in handy for a UTI. What we buy in the store is not 100% pure cranberry juice, that is why it does not work. Cranberries around her are already gone.
So how many pounds of cranberries gave you 7 qt, and could you of made fruit leather out or the pulp?
What a great job.. Good for you.. Happy New-year to both of you.. May the New-Year bring blessing to both of you... Neil Lochness Scottish Highlands..
Thank you very much! And same to you!
Hi Pam and Jim, what delicious looking cranberry juice. I hear yah I too would be ready to have a glass. Old fashion way of doing things I prefer to. Thanks for sharing this information and I just ordered one of the pots thanks to you. Love Love Love your videos. 💕
Thank you! I love my maslin pan and I hope you do as well.
Hi Pam!!!!! Love this video! I’m hoping to do this! Hope I find cranberries on sale !
I love canning my own juice. Thank you for sharing with all of us.
You are so welcome!
Pam! Wow!!! Did you talk with my doctor?! ;) I was just told by my doctor to drink MORE cranberry juice but she suggested the very expensive kind because of the cranberry concentrate in it. Well, guess what I am making? Yep, this recipe!!! I thank you and Jim for making this video!!!
So glad it was helpful. I hope it works for you!
Great idea
Charlene: Glad you think so! Jim
Happy New Year Guys! I was nice to see you water bath canning cranberry juice. Love your videos and love seeing Jim everyone once in a while.
aksarbeN: Happy New Year to you, too. We enjoyed the cranberry juice and I will be on once in a while. Sometimes it is spontaneous and other times it is planned. Jim
Thank you, RoseRed! Love this! I'm going to go look for cranberries now
In Canada, our “version of USDA” is Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. We also have Canadian Food Inspection Agency
Thank for the information,
HI! Another awesome video😍
BTW... What did happen to the pulp? Cranberry jam would be awesometo make, or even jellied cranberry sauce... Yum!
Good job girl!
Sounds great!! Great 💡 idea. And...its good to have around for when UTIs threatens our younger and older gals together.
My sister bought me a juice extractor and I am dying to try it. All you have to do is steam the fruit and the juice just pours out of the Spicket. It’s my next big adventure.
That sound so fun!
Wow! I’m going to try this! Surely this is healthier than store bought! May try it using sugar substitute. (Not to can but to test) Have 2 small bags in the freezer left over from Thanksgiving, boiling now to test “Whole Earth” sugar substitute so will let you know!☺️ As always, love your method of teaching!
Lynette, try using a mixture of erythritol and stevia. We mix it in our cranberry concentrate with water and ice. Perfect for helping balance our sugar and ph. You can find these two sweeteners in bulk online or already in packets at grocer. Monk fruit is also a perfect sugar sub. God bless
I have been buying and freezing cranberries after the holidays to make cranberry juice. I did not know it could be canned! I like mine with pulp in it. I am wondering if it would be ok to can with some pulp...I look forward to finding and ordering the canning book you reference in this post. Thank you! Cranberry juice is so good for you 😊!
I like to have pulp in any fruit drink. It reminds me it is NOT processed!
Mine was loaded with pulp, as this is how I prefer it. I hate wasting such a good part of the cranberry!
This is so wonderful! I had not yet 🙂 considered doing cranberry juice. I made tomato juice this fall with tomatoes from the garden and it is awesome. Our favorite is cranberry and the pure without sugar is so expensive. Great for warding off UTI’s. This is being added to my list to try as well. Currently I have a few bags in the refrigerator and should go get more!
I love it. What store did he find those at? Happy New Year!
Great teamwork as always! It looks beautiful in the jars 😍
Good stuff
Elizabeth: We are happy you enjoyed. Jim
I made this last night, it came out wonderful!!! THANK YOU 😊. ps I also did your SWEET POTATO pressure canned, they look super. I can't tell you both how much I appreciate what you teach.XOXO 😌
Great video. This is fun to watch you and learn new things.
Margo: Thanks so much! Jim
Great idea! I’ll be checking the stores…
Maybe use a double thickness of cheesecloth on your last pour off. Works pretty well for me. I just ordered 5 lbs of cranberries from azure standard.
I recently purchased a norpro steam juicer in plans for all the berries we planted. Will have to look for some clearance items to try it out.
What would be the shelf life for this juice done this way?
Should keep at least a year in a cool dark place. More likely several years.
