I don’t make anything with lemon or lime or orange unless I have citrus to squeeze fresh (or super juice, actually) and strongly prefer fresh pineapple juice.
For pear I always use good bottled, for cranberry I use store brand cranberry juice cocktail.
What say you?
I always keep fresh lemons, limes, oranges, and grapefruits. I use fresh pineapple when possible, but Lakewood pineapple juice I find is the next best thing and nothing else I’ve tried is as good as that particular brand. I use other fruits fresh when they are in season such as blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, etc. Only other juice I use fresh is ginger juice, but I process it specifically to make ginger syrup which I freeze so then it’s not really fresh anymore, but it’s still quite potent after thawing. Aside from that, I buy most other juices from the store like 100% cranberry, carrot, cherry, celery, etc. Sometimes that’s out of laziness and sometimes it’s because you can’t find certain fruits or vegetables in my area like black currants.
