    🧃About this Recipe

    Juicing a fruit or vegetable is typically done with a mechanical juicer. Simply put, this machine extracts the water content and removes the pulp/fiber of the fruit. This blueberry juice recipe is made with a high-speed blender, which retains the fibers (making it more nutritious), and keeps juicing easy and affordable. You also do not need a fine mesh strainer. If you have a high-speed blender, the remaining pulp will be minute and not thick.


    This juice has a fresh blueberry flavor with a hint of honey. It isn't too sweet, but you can always add more sweetness to your preference. I usually like to keep the added sugar content on the lower side.

    ❤️Why You'll Love It

    • It's affordable: Fresh blueberries can cost more money, but frozen blueberries are more affordable. They make this recipe more cost-efficient.

    • It's delicious and easily customizable: This juice is fresh tasting with a hint of sweet honey and lemon. You can customize the amounts to your liking.

    🌿Benefits of Blueberry Juice

    📝Ingredient Notes

    Honey: I like to use raw and unfiltered honey because it has the highest amount of nutritional compounds.

    Lemon juice: I recommend only using fresh lemon juice.

    🍓Substitutions

    Blueberries: While I haven't yet tried another berry in place of the blueberries, I think you would have the most success using strawberries as a substitution.

    Honey: Pure maple syrup (which is not the same as pancake syrup) can be used as a sweetener as well.

    Lemon juice: Fresh lime juice can be used in place of lemon juice.

    🥭Variations

    • Wild Blueberry Juice: This is a popular juice you can purchase by the bottle. You can easily buy a bag of frozen wild blueberries and make this a Wild Blueberry Juice.
    • Coconut water: Add coconut water instead of regular water. Or use half the water and use the rest with coconut water.
    • Blueberry juice cocktail: While this recipe is non-alcoholic, you can spike this juice with some vodka and add some club soda or sprite. 
    • Cinnamon: Cinnamon is known to enhance the flavor of blueberries. During the initial blend, add about ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon. 
    • No sugar: If you want to cut out the added sugar, peel an apple or two, remove the core, slice it up, and add it to the blender. Apples provide a natural sweetness that will make this juice delicious. 
    • Mint leaves: Mint flavor pairs really well with blueberries. Add 2 or 3 mint leaves and blend until completely smooth. 
    • Ice cube trays: Freeze this juice in an ice cube tray and add them to drinks like lemonade, sparkling water, alcoholic beverages and more.

    🧊Storing

    Store in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days. Shake before drinking.

    You can make this juice ahead of time. For best results, prepare the night before you plan on serving it.

    ✅Pro Tips

    • Use frozen blueberries instead of fresh ones: Fresh blueberries can vary in taste and sweetness, so your results may not be the same every time you use them. 
    • Blend the blueberries with plenty of water: If you don't use enough water, your juice will be thick instead of a straight liquid. 
    • Use a high-quality blender: A high-speed blender will ensure that you end up with smooth juice. 
    • Add enough sweetener to suit your liking: This juice isn't super sweet. If you like more sweetness, slowly add more honey or pure maple syrup to taste.

    Equipment

    • High speed blender

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 pint frozen blueberries 11 ounces (or about 2 heaping cups)
    • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    • ⅓ cup honey or pure maple syrup
    • 5 cups cold water

    Instructions
     

    • Add the blueberries, lemon juice, and honey to a high-speed blender with 1 cup of cold water.
    • Blend until completely smooth and no lumps remain.
    • Add in the remaining water and blend until completely mixed.

    Notes

    • If the juice has sat a while (in the refrigerator), shake it before drinking. 
    • For a wild blueberry juice recipe, use frozen wild blueberries. 
    • After blending, you can wait for the bubbles to settle or scoop it out to pour and serve.
    • Add enough sweetener to your liking. I've added a little more honey than ⅓ cup before, but I do not recommend adding ½ cup because the honey flavor will stand out too much.
    • This recipe makes just a little over 6 cups of juice.
