  • Question
    How many garlic cloves are needed for a cup of garlic juice?
    Community Answer
    One clove of garlic produces roughly 1 teaspoon of juice. There are 48 teaspoons in a cup. So one cup of garlic juice equals 48 cloves of garlic. Obviously this is a generality, but it is very close. Once you press your first clove and measure the amount of juice you get, you can adjust the formula accordingly.

    Why would I want to drink straight garlic juice? I use garlic all the time when I cook, I enjoy it.
    Community Answer
    Raw garlic has many more health benefits than cooked garlic. There are many nutrients that are destroyed during cooking. This will become apparent as soon as you eat a piece.

    Can I keep garlic water out for a night?
    Community Answer
    If you're going to use it the next day then yes, the question is though why not just refrigerate it? It can keep a surprisingly long time when refrigerated (although I only keep mine for a maximum of 3 days).
  • Question
    Can I use a blender to make garlic juice?
    Community Answer
    Yes. One cup peeled garlic cloves, 7 cups of water, 6 tbs. salt ( the small measuring spoon, not a big eating spoon ). Put in blender at high for 60 seconds. It will be foamy at top. Put in 2 quart jar. It won't spoil, the salt will preserve (and possibly ferment it over time ) it. No need to refrigerate unless you want to. After a day or two the garlic will settle to the bottom because the salt will draw out the juice. At that point you can filter out pulp, or do like I do and shake the jar around, mixing the pulp with the liquid and drink it like that. Every day or two drink about a quarter cup of garlic juice on empty stomach to reap the benefits. Drink water first to buffer stomach.
