Equipment
- Blender
Materials
- 8 pieces sugarcane - about an arm's length each.
Instructions
- After scraping the skin of the sugarcane, the hardback that covers the fleshy pulp also needs to be peeled.
- Use a knife and peel off the hardback to leave only the fleshy pulp
- Cut the sugarcane pulp into small pieces to make it easier for blending
- Add a small amount of water into the blender, ⅓ cup would do. The little water helps the blender to spin the pulp and chaff very well, which in turn releases the juice.
- Drop a few pieces of cut sugarcane into the blender and start blending; when completely mashed, add a few more pieces and blend.
- When done blending, transfer to a strainer with fine pores and sieve into a container or jar.
- You can add lemon juice like 2 tablespoons to a cup of sugarcane juice; an inch of fresh ginger roots can also be added. When adding ginger, it is good to blend together with the sugarcane in the blender before sieving it.
- Your sugarcane juice is ready; it can be served chilled or over ice cubes.
Notes
If you are making this juice as a sweetener, no need of adding ginger or lemon.
