Amla Juice for great health benefits | A simple drink to boost immunity and to quench thirst

I love to drink fruit juices and beverages made from healthy food ingredients, like lassi made by blending curd and spices. Yes, that’s one of my favourite so thought I will mention it. We spend money in buying soft drinks which not only is a waste of money but also has adverse side-effects on our precious health. So if we have to quench our thirst then why not drink something healthy to also get a number of health benefits. One such super healthy recipe is Amla Juice or Gooseberry juice.

To be honest, at my home, this healthy Amla juice is part of our routine during Amla or gooseberry season. So I thought to share this Amla juice recipe with you via FoodQuench. So that we all know how super healthy this simple fruit is and how you can make a healthy juice using Amla or Gooseberry.

Amla (Gooseberry) is a super fruit and I hope most of you would agree if you know health benefits of eating Amla. Amla is available mostly during winter and it’s good to consume it daily if one can. Amla can be consumed in any form as per one’s choice like Amla Juice, Amla Murabba, Amla Pickle or in Amla Candy form and the best option which I also like is to eat raw Amla or gooseberry with some salt because of its tangy taste.

Here today, I am going to share a recipe of Amla Juice or Gooseberry Juice which everyone must have for many health benefits because Amla is rich in Vitamin C. Gooseberry also has plenty of other minerals and nutrients like calcium, iron, fibre, and many more. Amla also contains antioxidants which helps to cleanse our body by detoxifying it. And guess what, it will also quench your thirst ! – so avoid those soft drinks.

Other than to quench the thirst, Amla or gooseberry’s health benefits is a huge list. However, I would specify some of the important benefits, which are:

• Eyesight or vision improvement
• Prevents wrinkles
• Prevents pre-mature skin ageing
• Maintains skin moisture level
• Helps to get glowing skin
• Strengthen bones
• Improves digestion
• Boost’s immunity

One of the important health benefit of Amla is that it controls blood sugar level. So it can also help to control your diabetes by controlling blood sugar levels. But make sure you always consult with your physician for your regular diabetes medication and don’t stop taking your medications.

In case you don’t like to eat raw Amla then you can eat it in other forms too. One of the simple recipe made using Amla is Amla Murabba and here is the blog for how to make Amla Murabba at home.

I have tried my best to give you a few ways to consume Amla regularly. I will keep updating more Amla recipes so you can always comeback to FoodQuench and refer new recipes.

I have used around 1 kg of Amla in this recipe which will yield around 1 litre of Amla Juice so that I can store it and consume later, you can adjust the quantity of Amla as you need. Now let’s get into preparing Amla juice for health benefits.

This Amla juice can be consumed daily. Quench your thirst and stay healthy at the same time by drinking this super rich fruit juice. I hope you will add this Amla juice in your diet and stay healthy and away from diseases.

Here is a simple step by step YouTube video explaining the Amla Juice recipe.

Cooking method for Healthy Amla Juice

Video

Off On

1. Rinse all amla well.

2. Cut all amla or gooseberry as you prefer.

   
   I have shown a way to cut amla with some trick which you can watch on youtube (link mentioned above).

3. Transfer to a grinding jar.

   
   Don't overload the grinder jar and grind in batches for smooth blending of amla.

4. Add half cup water (one batch) for smooth blending and grind.

   

5. Perfect fine amla puree is ready.

   

6. Place a nylon cloth on top of a vessel and transfer Amla puree to it. Make a pouch (potli) bag by grabbing ends of the cloth together.

   
   Don't use cotton, especially white cotton cloth as amla can change the colour of the cotton cloth.

7. Squeeze out all juice and repeat the steps for all batches of Amla puree.

   

8. Amla Juice is ready.

   

9. Add to shot glasses (or any other type of glass as you prefer) and mix with 2 to 3 pinches of rock salt. This one shot glass dose is sufficient for drinking it daily.

   • Transfer this Amla juice only to a glass jar for storage and don't use steel, copper or any other vessels.
   • Amla Juice is sour so you can add some water to it before consuming to adjust its sourness.
   • Mix amla juice with normal salt or rock salt (rock salt would be better to enhance the taste).
   • You can consume amla juice with some honey too.
   • You can prepare sharbat using this plain amla juice by adding some rock sugar (powdered rock sugar) as an even healthier option.
