1-year-old baby fruit juice recipe?

Fruit juice advice for 1-year-olds is really confusing since everyone has different recommendations—this is very natural.
Current pediatric guidelines are quite clear: 1-year-olds don't need fruit juice at all. When fruit is given whole (puree or soft small pieces) instead of as juice, the fiber content stays intact, blood sugar rises more gently, and it's more filling. AAP recommends limiting 1-3 year-olds to a maximum of 120 ml (about a teacup) of 100% fruit juice per day, viewing this as an occasional option rather than something necessary.
If you do give juice: only freshly-pressed or additive-free 100% juice, never add sugar. Offer juice with meals or right after—this shortens how long it contacts tooth enamel. Use a cup, never a bottle. But the best approach is to offer water and whole/puree fruit to your baby; this foundation is better for teeth and digestion long-term.
