Juice can get pricey. Our juice was running low, and instead of buying more, I simply added 2 free ingredients and our juice bottle was suddenly full again! One of these is all that yummy but syrupy sweet juice left in the bottom of a can of peaches. It's a shame to just throw it away, now you don't have to. This was tested and approved by 3 kids so far, so I was happy, and it saved me a trip to the store!
Start with a large bottle of apple juice, about 1/2 empty. Add about 3 cans of leftover peach juice (a funnel works great!), and as much cold water needed to fill your bottle to the top again. Replace cap, shake vigorously, enjoy!

Does anyone have recipes that use fruit juices from canned fruits in them?
I used to drain off the juice from canned fruit and let it run down the sink. Was I crazy? YES!
To extend your juice supply, use the liquid from canned fruit. Drain the liquid into the juice pitcher and stir.
