Mixing Tart Cherry Juice Concentrate

tart cherry juiceWe recommend a mixture of 1 part King Orchards tart cherry juice concentrate to 7 parts water. One easy recipe is to mix 1/2 cup concentrate with 3 1/2 cups of water to make one quart of juice.  (hint: an empty KO juice bottle works great for this.)

Many of our customers are on a routine of drinking 8 ounces of mixed juice per day. Two tablespoons of concentrate in an 8 ounce juice glass is the right mixture.

One of the nice things about choosing King Orchards Montmorency tart cherry juice concentrate is that it is 100% cherries, so you can be creative with how strong you mix it as well as with what you choose as a mixer. Try mixing with club soda, orange juice or apple juice. You can also add it to oatmeal or yogurt or even drink it straight by the tablespoon.

    I was just wondering if you can use your concentrate to make jelly. It seems like a wonderful idea as I don’t have access to fresh cherries.
    Could you give me the recipe if you know of one.
    I love the juice on vanilla ice cream!

    Yes, you can use the tart cherry juice concentrate to make jelly. We had a customer who tried it and shared the following with us:

    “I used 1 1/2 cups concentrate with 3 1/2 cups water to reconstitute the concentrate for juice for jelly. I always follow the recipe in the liquid CERTO box. I did the same as I always have when using the IQF cherries in the past (having had to heat, mash, and strain them for juice) with splendid results. Now you will have an answer for future customers regarding using your concentrate for jelly-making. (This particular recipe did not require all the juice I had reconstituted as the recipe calls for 3 1/2 cups juice.)”

    Cheers!
