Wow - simple enough. I have got to try this. Thanks so much!

Yep and she does grape and blueberry juice just the same. I'm not to fond of blue berries in anything but her grape juice is awesome. Just uncap slide the lid over a little bit and pour into a glass. When empty the chickens & turkeys get the berries/grapes.

Here's a pic of blueberry (which she really likes) and grape juices. Sometimes simpler is better. Who needs all those chemicals that I can't even pronounce the names of in store bought juices? :(

Love it! I will definitely be giving them a try. Thanks for the info!

I might add and this could be nothing more than a coincidence to... But over the last few weeks I was having an annoying problem of the sensation of having to pee like all the time and when I did pee, it was very little. I was starting to think, I might have to go see the doctor. I had a glass of my wife's cranberry juice yesterday and I back to peeing normal again today.

IDK... I'm not a doctor, but my mom always said if your feeling like you may have a blatter infection cranberry juice will help clear it up. I don't know how much truth there is to that and like I said it may be just a coincidence. But I do know I'm really glad I don't have the sensation that I have to pee all the time anymore - it was very annoying and I wasn't sleeping very well because of it.

Hummm... I was bored (cold / snow) outside, so I researched.

Again "100% Juice Cranberry"??? IDK about that - you decide. But I think the answer is quite obvious.

We only usually have grape juice here since I have access to as many grapes as I want. I steam juice them and can that.

I AM thinking of planting cranberries. They should grow well here if I pick the right location.

I'll have to try your recipe if I do

I used to be very fussy about the fruit juice I let DS drink when he was very young and started really studying labels on fruit juices. You will not believe how hard it is to find PURE fruit juice in South Africa and when you do, the price will scare you. I thought getting a juicer would be a good investment, but canning is so simple, it makes sense to go that route!

For bladder infections, I used to make a mix of rooibos tea and apple juice and drink that. It's refreshing, healthy and it helps a lot. It's good to know about the cranberry juice too, thanks!
