Ingredients
- 200 g fresh cranberries or thawed frozen cranberries
- 4 medium apples
- 1 ripe pear
- ½ lime
- 200 ml sparkling water
- Ice to serve
- Extra cranberries apple slices and thyme, to garnish
Instructions
- Juice the fruit: Run the apples, pear, cranberries and ½ lime through the Nama J2 juicer, alternating between the ingredients to help them juice evenly.
- Add the flavour: Lightly clap 2 sprigs of thyme between your hands to release their aroma, then add to the juice and leave to infuse for 3–5 minutes. Taste and adjust with a little more lime if needed.
- Serve: Fill two glasses with ice, divide the juice between them and top with sparkling water. Garnish with fresh thyme, apple slices and a few cranberries.
A few tips
- For a sweeter mocktail: Use an extra apple or a sweeter pear.
- For a deeper cranberry flavour: Use more cranberries and balance their tartness with extra apple.
- For a party-ready version: Make the juice ahead of time and add the sparkling water just before serving.
