Features of preparing cranberry juice

Juices, fruit drinks, drinks for dessert... How to choose a drink so that it is healthy?

Refreshments

The stores always have a wide selection of drinks that attract bright rich taste. But they are not always able to quench your thirst, much less bring benefits and nourish you with natural vitamins.

And more and more often I want to replace all this “chemistry” with a drink prepared at home according to simple recipe. This drink reeks of childhood: homemade lemonade in a transparent jug, jelly from natural products, (black, green, red), vegetable and milkshakes and, of course, fruit juice and compote.

How these drinks differ from store-bought ones is clear. But how do they differ from each other? In this article we’ll talk about how fruit juice differs from compote.

Morse and compote: differences

To quench your thirst, you can use compote and fruit drink. What is the difference between these drinks? Let's see how they are prepared and what is included in their composition.

Morse is a soft drink that is prepared from natural juice diluted with water and added sugar. Fruit drinks are prepared from various berries and fruits, both from one type and from a mixture. Only boiled water is used for preparing fruit drinks. Sugar is diluted in it and heated to completely dissolve.
