Pear & Apple Juice
The pear and apple trees are dropping fruit like crazy. Last year I made several apple pies. I have not been very interested in the pear tree till just recently. I found out that I love pear juice and last summer we bought a steamer. We finally decided to try it out and picked up a bunch of apples and pears. The first batch of apples only produced about 32oz of juice and the juice was a little sour. The second batch we used pears, we got about 64 oz of pear juice and it taste wonderful. I have been going out and picking up the pears that fall on the ground, cutting them up and putting them in the juicer. We have several container of pear juice. Last year I also put up several container of apples to be used in future pies.
