prune juice To make your own: Simmer a mixture of 5 parts water to 1 part prunes for about three hours (if prunes are pitted) or four hours (if prunes have pits), stirring occasionally. Remove the pits, then puree what's left in a blender or food processor.
How prune juice is manufactured
Raw Materials
The basic ingredients for making prune juice are water and prunes. Prunes are the dried fruit of the prune plum. In California, most of the prunes are of the La Petite D'Agen variety, a prune plum native of Southwest France.
The Basic Prune Juice Manufacturing Process
1. The prunes are washed and placed in a cooking tank along with the appropriate quantity of water.
2. The contents of the cook tank are then heated and stirred until the prunes mostly dissolve and the sugars go into the water to make juice. This can take from several hours to as much as a half a day (12 hours).
3. If viscosity reduction is required, enzyme is added at this point.
4. The juice is then strained or filtered to remove the pits and the un-dissolved solids.
5. The finished juice is then canned, bottled or made into prune juice concentrate.
6. For canning and bottling, the process is a hot fill and hold at 190°F.

it comes from French Prunes which grow on French Prune trees..they are a dark oval prune and the inside is a gold color..the juice is made from squishing fresh prunes, similer to making apple juice from fresh apples..after you have spent your summer picking prunes..prunes become a four letter word and that word is not plum..prunes are not plums..They taste different because they are 2 different fruit..they are just trying to give the prune some class by calling it a plum...You haven't lived until you eat fresh dried prunes straight and hot from the dehydorator..

A prune is a special type of plum that dries without spoiling.
So the prune juice comes from this fruit, not from the plums that you typically eat fresh. The juice is higher in fiber than other plum juices.

actually, there is such a thing as a prune plum. Juice from the prune plum, before it is a dried, is prune juice.

You boil them in water to make the juice. Do not use a lot of water just enough to cover the prunes.
