Easy, quick recipe to make fresh rhubarb juice with rhubarb, sugar, and black tea. This recipe is from our Amish farmers in Iowa. Rhubarb juice also makes an excellent sweet, medium, or dry wine, see my recipe.
We grown wild rhubarb here in the hot valley, and green and red rhubarb in the cooler hills nearby, sold at the farmers market.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
