Ingredients
2 2 Asian pears
240 ml 1 cup Water
2 teaspoons 2 teaspoons Honey or sugar
1 tablespoon 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Equipment
Blender or juicer- Fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth
- Knife
- Measuring cups (for USA)
- Spoons
- Glasses
Directions
- Start by washing the Asian pears thoroughly under cold water. Peel the skin if you prefer a smoother juice, though the skin is edible and contains beneficial nutrients. Core the pears and cut them into small chunks for easier blending.
- Place the pear chunks into a blender. Add 1 cup of water to help with blending. If you like your juice sweeter, add honey or sugar at this stage. Blend until smooth and fully liquefied.
- Pour the blended pear mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a bowl or jug. Use a spoon or spatula to press down the pulp and extract as much juice as possible.
- For a slightly tangy twist, stir in a tablespoon of lemon juice. This will also help to preserve the color and enhance the flavor.
- Pour the fresh Asian pear juice into glasses and serve immediately. You can chill the juice in the refrigerator for a few minutes if you prefer it cold.
Notes
- Asian pears are naturally sweet, but if you find the juice too tart, feel free to adjust the sweetness with honey, sugar, or a natural sweetener like agave syrup.
