Frequently Asked Questions About Fresh plum juice
How do you make fresh plum juice?
Fresh plum juice is made by washing ripe plums, removing the pits, and juicing or blending the fruit. Add a little water if blending for a thinner drink, and strain only if you prefer a smoother texture.
Is fresh plum juice the same as prune juice?
No. Fresh plum juice is made from fresh plums, while prune juice is made from dried plums, also called prunes. Their taste and composition differ, so fresh plum juice should not be assumed to have the same effects as prune juice.
Does fresh plum juice help with constipation?
Fresh plum juice is not as well established for constipation as prune juice. Prunes contain sorbitol, which can help draw water into the bowel; fresh plum juice may not provide the same effect, especially when the pulp is strained out.
Should you peel plums before making fresh plum juice?
No, you usually do not need to peel plums before making fresh plum juice. Wash them well and remove the pits; leaving the skin on adds color and keeps more of the fruit in the drink, though the texture may be less smooth.
How long does fresh plum juice last in the fridge?
Fresh plum juice is best kept covered in the refrigerator and used within a day or two. It may separate as it sits, so shake it before drinking; discard it if its smell or appearance has changed.
Can you freeze fresh plum juice?
Yes, fresh plum juice can be frozen in a freezer-safe container. Leave room for expansion, thaw it in the refrigerator, and stir or shake it before serving because the texture may separate after thawing.
Which plums make the sweetest fresh plum juice?
Fully ripe, soft plums usually make sweeter fresh plum juice than firm, tart green plums. Taste the fruit before juicing, since plum varieties differ; ripe fruit can reduce the need to add sweetener.
Can you drink fresh plum juice without adding sugar?
Yes, fresh plum juice can be made without added sugar. Use ripe plums for a naturally sweeter taste; adding sugar is optional, but it increases the drink’s total sugar content.
Is fresh plum juice good for people with diabetes?
People with diabetes may be able to include fresh plum juice, but juice is easy to drink quickly and can affect blood glucose. Follow your individual care plan and ask your clinician or dietitian what portion fits it.
Can you mix fresh plum juice with other drinks?
Yes, fresh plum juice mixes well with sparkling water for a lighter drink or with other fruit juices for a sweeter blend. Add the mixer gradually so the plum’s tart flavor does not disappear.

What is Fresh plum juice?
Fresh plum juice is made by pressing ripe plums, a fruit grown in many regions around the world. Its colour and sweetness vary with the plum variety and how ripe the fruit is; some versions are strained, while others retain more pulp.
Expect a sweet-tart flavour and a smooth or slightly pulpy texture. Serve it chilled at breakfast or as a refreshing drink with a snack; it is also easy to dilute with water if you prefer a lighter taste. Like many fruit juices, it is mostly carbohydrate and has little fibre compared with whole plums, while providing vitamin C and potassium. Pair it with a handful of unsalted nuts or a savoury breakfast.
