Red Shiso Juice

Every year, I whip together low sugar shiso juice, and since it pleases my friends whenever I share it with them, I figured this year, I'd publish the recipe. It's a mildly sweet, healthy shiso juice that you can drink as is.
If it's too troublesome to strain the leaves in Step 3, you can omit that step, but straining makes it look nicer. Add sugar to taste. If it's too strong, dilute with carbonated or plain water. You can use the leftover shiso leaves for cooking. The vinegar aroma is strong right after steeping, but will fade after the leaves cool. Recipe by Crepemeter

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rinse well, then tear the leaves apart. Discard the stalks.
- 2
In a pot (do not use aluminum), boil 1500 ml of water, then add the shiso leaves and simmer for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally with chopsticks.
- 3
Line a colander with a paper towel, then strain the juice from Step 2, and return to the pot.
- 4
Add 100 g sugar to the pot, then heat. The juice should be a dark red color.
- 5
Add 100 ml vinegar, and the color should become more reddish.
- 6
It's ready after it comes to a boil. Skim any scum that rises. Drink after cooling.
- 7
Store in the refrigerator. If you store the shiso juice in the used up bottle of vinegar, it will last longer.

Healthy Red Shiso Leaf Juice Healthy Red Shiso Leaf Juice
Our family recipe for shiso juice only has little water in it, so it is rich in shiso extract.I used to use citric acid previously, but now I use lemon juice, which is easy to get.(The photo shows double the amount of the recipe.)If you don't have enough leaves than what the recipe calls for, it's not a problem. In Step 7, I boiled the juice once because I used fresh lemon juice. If you are using bottled lemon juice or vinegar, you don't have to boil it. Just add the lemon juice or vinegar at Step 6 after turning off the heat. Recipe by La Land cookpad.japan -
Clean and Refreshing Red Shiso Juice Clean and Refreshing Red Shiso Juice
My mother prepares this and my children love it. It's a thirst quencher. My guests love this, so I've given them as gifts to take home. Enjoy the beautiful color and flavor that nature has given to us.You can use 2 cups of vinegar instead of the citric acid. It's a concentrate, so dilute it before drinking. (Dilute depending on how sweet it is.) I made it rather low on sweetness with 350 g of sugar, if you want it sweeter or to serve to kids, add a bit more sugar. Recipe by Tamochan cookpad.japan -
