Juices From Various Fruits Shown Viable For Year Round Use
Washington June 26 The United States Department of Agriculture reports that currant, blackberry, black raspberry, sour cherry and peach juices can be sterilized and stored without losing color or flavor, offering year round use for households and soda fountains and reducing waste. Some fruits like strawberry and red raspberry do not hold color or flavor after sterilization, and lemon and orange face flavor changes with no commercial remedy yet. Pineapple juice can yield attractive sterilized flavor, needing cold storage and filtration. Apple juice concentration by freezing shows commercial promise for shipping and longevity, while grape juice concentration to syrup also looks promising though further study is needed. Details appear in Bulletin No. 241 Studies on Fruit Juices.
