How to Make Juice from Rhubarb

Do you have Fresh or Frozen Rhubarb that you want to make into Rhubarb Juice?

You may want to preserve (can) the juice, or use it fresh as an ingredient to make a healthy drink or punch.

and bountiful rhubarb harvests, if you grow rhubarb, you may want to

pack all that healthy rhubarb goodness into home-made juice!

Refrigerated, this juice will keep for up to a week.

Directions for How to Make Rhubarb Juice

Chop washed rhubarb into 1/2" to 1" pieces, or use chopped frozen rhubarb. 

Place chopped rhubarb in a large pan.

Add just enough water to cover the rhubarb, bring to a boil, and then simmer on "low" until rhubarb is soft, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Strain the mixture through a jelly bag, or a very fine sieve, pressing with the back of a spoon to extract the juice.

Discard the solids or use them to make another rhubarb recipe!

If you want to sweeten the juice, do so by adding about 1/4 cup of granulated sugar for each 2 lbs. of rhubarb.

Add the sugar immediately after straining the stewed rhubarb and stir to dissolve the sugar completely.

If you want to preserve (can) the juice, follow these simple instructions:
