Blood-red Cranberry Juice

A close associate of the blueberry, cranberries, (or Sassamanash as they are known in some indigenous tribes of North America) are similar in healing properties, full of antioxidants and good for bladder functions. They are mainly cultivated in North America, where they are native. Juicing cranberries is a relatively new process, only made possible by new fangled industrial machinery. Traditionally served with turkey (or a nut roast) on Christmas day, cranberries have a tart flavour when fresh.

Cranberries are unusually high in tannins, which have anti-clotting properties, reducing the risk of urinary tract infections and the amount of plaque-causing bacteria in the mouth. Sexy.
