Hey All, My hubby and I went out the other evening and picked some prickly pear fruits....they looked amazing! It's a great time of year to go gather some. We use the juice for a variety of things....smoothies, margaritas, and a very nice breakfast juice. However, these were picked so he could juice them and then make his famous BBQ sauce with it. It's my favorite! For those wondering ppear juice is high in Vitamin C and apparently helps control blood sugar. My husband likes to use a couple small branches of desert broom to brush off the spines on the fruit before picking (see pic below). Then uses tongs to grab and twist off the fruit and put it in a 5 gal bucket.
