Cloudy Apple Juice
Cloudy apple juice is a refreshing drink made from fresh apples, lemon, caster sugar and ice cubes. The Thermomix blends everything into a naturally cloudy, silky juice with a bright citrus note in minutes. Ideal as a healthy snack or thirst-quencher, this homemade juice contains no preservatives and tastes far fresher than shop-bought versions.
About this recipe
Cloudy Apple Juice Thermomix TM7 style is the simplest way to turn a bowl of apples into a naturally sweet, restaurant-quality drink. Searching for easy juice recipes or a quick homemade refreshment for your all-in-one kitchen machine ends here: the TM7 blends whole apple pieces with water, lemon and a touch of caster sugar into a silky, cloudy juice without a separate juicer. The natural cloudiness comes from the apple fibre staying in the glass rather than being filtered away, giving a fuller mouthfeel and fresher taste than carton juice. Serve it well chilled over ice cubes as an afternoon snack, at brunch, or at a children's party where everyone can watch the apples transform in seconds. Because you control the sugar, you can adjust the sweetness to your own taste or the tartness of the apple variety you have at home.
Preparation tips
- Choose a sweet apple variety such as Gala or Jonagold so you need less caster sugar; sharper Bramley apples will require extra sweetness to balance the lemon juice.
- For the freshest taste, chill the apples and water in advance and add the ice cubes only at the end, so the juice stays cold without becoming diluted too quickly.
- Serve the cloudy apple juice immediately in tall glasses; if it separates, a brief stir with a spoon restores the lovely cloudy texture before drinking.
Recipe variations
- Alcohol-free party version: add a few mint leaves and a splash of sparkling water to the blended apple juice for a festive mocktail that children and adults can both enjoy at celebrations.
- Seasonal autumn variation: replace part of the apples with ripe pears and a pinch of cinnamon for a cosy, warm-spiced twist that suits cooler days perfectly.
