    Canned Plum Juice Recipe

    Post by Valentina (Fields to Feasts) · 9 Comments

    This Canned Plum Juice Recipe tastes so fresh and delicious! I grew up canning different kinds of fruits with my mom and still enjoy doing it to this day.

    I remember, as a little girl, watching my grandma canning all sorts of fruits and vegetables. This work seemed so important, I thought she was a genius. As I watched her sort, wash the produce, divide them between jars, fill, flavor, and cook the jars, I was simply amazed.

    There are a huge variety of juices in the grocery stores, but calling it juice (with all its infused toxins) is highly generous. Nothing beats the taste and safety of a freshly opened home-canned juice.

    Then, all you need is to dilute with water to your preferred sweetness, add some canned plums into your glass of juice and enjoy! Oh, how tasty it is. You will not be buying juice from the store ever again! Organic, clean, and refreshing!

    Place 3 or 4 jars into Stove Top Waterbath Canner pot (depends on the size of your canner), fill the pot with cold water until the jars are submerged ¾ in the water.

    Let the water in the canning pot boil for about 10 minutes.

    Then screw the lids with bare hands as tight as you can (this way you will feel if the lid is screwed properly not sideways, be careful not to burn your hands).

    Then put on canning gloves or use canning utensils to remove the jar from the pot. Screw the lid tight.

    After the lid is screwed tight, flip a jar upside down and let it stand until cools (I leave them in this position overnight). Drain the water from the canning pot and repeat the same instructions with the remaining jars of plums.

    • Have you ever tried blackcurrant jam? It's one of my favorite jams. Canned Blackcurrant Jam Recipe is much easier to make than you can imagine. I have several blackcurrant bushes in my garden. The jam comes into production fairly quickly, if you don't count the harvest time. And with as many kiddo helpers that I have, we tackled one bush in just a few hours and produce 11 pounds of harvest. #blackcurrantjam #homegrownblackcurrant #easyrecipe #gardengrownblackcurrant

      My wife made a number of jars of juice using your recipe. Is there a recommended number of days that you should let the jars sit on the shelf before consuming them? In other words, does taste improve over time?

        Give at least a couple of weeks before opening a jar that way the plums have plenty of time to release its flavor. Thank you very much for trying out my recipe. Yes, the taste will improve (say the juice will taste much better if you open the jar after 2 weeks of canning compare if you were to open it the next day). I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

      I wanted to let you know that the plum juice turned out great. We are down to our last three jars and are hoping to get a bigger plum crop next year so we can make more juice. I discovered that "cutting" the juice 50/50 with diet sprite or 7-up makes a good "sipping" drink. We generally have a bigger raspberry crop than we know what to do with so might experiment making raspberry juice next year. Thanks for the great juice recipe!

      Hello,

      Wondering if you can make plum juice without sugar OR with an alternative like honey?

      Kind regards,

        I'm sorry, but I have not tried it. Sugar is important to make syrup. Try using organic sugar or use a little less of it. Let me know how it goes?
