In the Netherlands, you generally encounter two different types of blueberries: one mainly in stores, the other in the wild. Both blueberries are very healthy, but there are differences. The somewhat larger, rounder berries you can usually buy in stores under the name “blueberries” are the fruits of the Vaccinium corymbosum. <\/em>This is found in the wild in the United States and elsewhere, but not here. However, they are widely cultivated because they grow in clusters and are easy to pick. They have light flesh and a mild, sweet flavor. You can buy them year-round, though sometimes in the frozen section. Even frozen, these blueberries are still healthy. The blueberry that you can also pick in the wild in our Netherlands is a different type of berry, from the Vaccinium myrtillus<\/em>. This one does not grow in clusters, but with more distance between the berries, which are also somewhat smaller. They have dark purple flesh and taste a bit more acidic and tart. You can pick them in the wild between April and June and sometimes again later in the (late) summer. You can make the following blueberry juice recipes with both types of blueberries. <\/p>\n\n

This delicious dark purple juice combines (wild) blue (bilberry) berries with (wild) blackberries, purple bilberry and a little lemon. In spring and (late) summer you can pick the blueberries and blackberries yourself in the wild. This is a fun way to enjoy a beautiful day and free too! Choose berries and blackberries that are a dark blue or purple color, a little soft to the touch and easily detached from the branch. Wild fruits are often very rich in healthy nutrients. Out of season, you can also choose blueberries and blackberries from the store, possibly in frozen form. They hardly lose freshness and nutrients when frozen, if all goes well. Fruits from the freezer are also often a bit more economical. Of course, you should thaw them for a while before pressing them. <\/p>\n\n
