Roll up birch sap

Unfortunately, the birch sap season is short. And we really want this tasty and healthy drink to please us for a long time, and even better – all year round. In this case, canning will come to our aid. Sealing birch sap for the winter is a completely simple process; even young housewives can cope with it. So what do we need? Fresh birch sap, sugar, lemons, oranges and several branches of a currant bush.
We filter the birch sap through cheesecloth and place it on the stove.



Add sugar at the rate of 6 tablespoons per three liters of juice. While the juice is heating up, prepare the jars. They need to be washed thoroughly with soda, and then filled 1/3 with boiling water, covered with a lid for seaming and left for 5-10 minutes.
Wash the lemons and oranges cleanly and cut them into thick slices; put 2-3 slices of each fruit in each jar.



We put currant branches in some jars.
Keep an eye on the juice on the stove; as soon as it starts to boil, turn it off. The water from the jars must be drained and hot juice poured into each one.



Cover with a lid and roll up. In this case, it is better to place the jar of juice on the floor, on a towel, so it is more convenient to roll it up.



Check that the lid does not rotate and is seated tightly. We turn the rolled up jars upside down, cover them with something warm: a jacket, a blanket, and leave them for several hours.



Now you can enjoy delicious aromatic birch sap all year round!
